WHY VOLUNTEER?
VOLUNTEERS ARE THE LIFE-LINE OF SPORTS ORGANIZATIONS
Those interested in being considered as a volunteer, should contact help@ottawacitysoccer.com
The Club could not exist without the efforts of all those individuals who are coaches, conveners, managers, trainers and volunteers. It takes a tremendous effort to accomplish all that must be done in order to sustain a successful soccer program.
As a community based club, OCSC and its volunteers are a major contributor to the health, social and economic life of our community.
VOLUNTEERING IS THE KEY TO A HEALTHY COMMUNITY
As people search for ways to enrich their lives, many do so by giving their personal time and skills to the community and community based sports organizations. Our volunteer’s offer a wide range of activities, and assume a number of responsibilities at all levels in our club having a profound affect on the soccer experience of thousands of our young players.
VOLUNTEER RECOGNITION
OCSC and the Club Board of Directors appreciate the time and effort that volunteers contribute to the club and the youth in our community. As such, OCSC strives to provide volunteers with the necessary tools and support in order to be successful.
Each year, we nominate a volunteer within OCSC for the Ottawa Ward 9 Volunteer to an outstanding volunteer within our club.
VOLUNTEER APPRECIATION
Each summer, OCSC holds a Volunteer Appreciation event for all club volunteers and their families. The event features food and beverages, along with bouncy castles, and music. Please look out for information from your coordinator on the event details each year.
