Central Frontenac Soccer Association in desperate need of volunteers

Central Frontenac Soccer | Oct 01, 2015

Volunteers are urgently needed or there may not be a 2016 soccer season for the enthusiastic group of young soccer players across Central Frontenac. The core group of four organizers of the association are no longer able to assume all of the multiple roles involved in coordinating the soccer season and are hopeful that they can attract six to eight new volunteers to help run the 2016 soccer season. Their last appeal for committee volunteers resulted in only one new person stepping up, so they are worried about the association’s future.

This past season, which ran from July 27 to Sept. 13, saw nearly 100 children ages 3 to 16 years enjoy the many health and social benefits that the sport of soccer brings. The season was a great success. Children learned new soccer skills, stayed active, and met new friends.

The coordinators of the association fear that they may be forced to dissolve the association unless a new group of volunteers are found by November 1. No experience is necessary for volunteering and the committee only meets a few times each year to assign tasks and goals. The meetings are fun, social and productive and the current coordinators are happy to assist and support any newcomers. Some of the tasks volunteers complete are preparing schedules, coordinating registration, arranging teams, and equipment organizing. So if you want to keep the sport of soccer alive for your children, please contact Lynette Whan now to offer your assistance at 613-279-2366 or This email address is being protected from spambots.
