The RFL in partnership with Student Rugby League and the young volunteers organisation 'V' has funded new posts aimed at increasing the opportunities available for volunteers in the North West.
Danny Parkinson and Clare Robinson are the new Regional Youth Volunteer Co-ordinators who will be looking for new and exciting ways of attracting volunteers into the great game of rugby league.
They will be looking at encouraging and assisting young people aged 16-25 to volunteer within the sport of Rugby League.
The purpose of the roles are to create a larger, better trained, well motivated volunteer workforce operating in an environment where they are valuable and respected.
Volunteers are already working hard in local amateur rugby league clubs, schools, colleges, sport development units and in the local community by giving up their own time week after week.
The volunteer co-ordinators would like to help local teams out by recruiting more volunteers into rugby league by training and developing local youngsters to have the attributes to take on such a role.
If you would like to know more about this new and exciting project or would like to volunteer then contact Danny on the contact details below.
Enjoy your Rugby League!
