Volunteers help everyone succeed.
The McFarland Soccer Club relies on volunteers to support an enjoyable soccer experience for our 600 soccer players and their families. Some of the important efforts supported by volunteers includes field clean-up days, tournaments, concessions workers and more.
Therefore, MSC has a volunteer requirement of all our MSC families, much like our neighboring clubs of Oregon, Norski, and Stoughton.
Current volunteer requirements are below:
- U9 and older - 2 hours per family per season (a season includes both fall and spring) or $100 to buy out your hours.
- We would greatly prefer that families volunteer instead of buying out.
- However, a buy out option does exist and you will be able to select this option online when you register your player(s) for soccer.
- All volunteers must be at least 16 years old.
The Volunteer Coordinator will keep track of volunteer hours throughout the year and any family who has not fulfilled their volunteer hours or bought out by the end of the season will be required to pay their buy out fee before registering for the following season.
If you are concerned about having the time and availability to satisfy the volunteer requirement there are numerous ways/days for you to fulfill your volunteer requirement in 2 hour shifts, such as:
- field clean up/shut down days
- volunteer at our tournaments
- volunteer at our summer camps
- concessions workers throughout the year
- volunteer at fundraising events
There are also a number of positions you could apply for that get an exemption from your volunteer requirement:
- Board members
- U6-U10 coaches
- U9 and older managers
