Volunteers Needed

The Bennington Soccer Club is run 100% by volunteers. The success of this program is dependent on parents and other volunteers who are willing to donate time for the welfare of the children, and of the community. Each season the club is in need of volunteers to help as coaches and assistant coaches. The club strongly supports the development of coaches through in-house clinics, coaching handbooks, coaching literature and club-funded instructional clinics.

The Club is also embarking on a long term strategic planning process to ensure we have enough practice fields, game fields, equipment and coaching knowledge. We are in great need of volunteers to help with these efforts. Of course, there are a number of behind-the-scenes activities that need to happen in order for each weekend to be successful. Many of these activities require very little time, but are crucial to the success of Bennington Soccer.

Coaches create a positive learning environment teaching sportsmanship, fundamental skills, teamwork and responsibility. Pre-season coaching clinics are offered each season.

Volunteer coaches are the backbone of youth sports. Without parents volunteering their time the youth sports world would come to a halt. Please consider giving your time.
