Can you help?

OJFC First Kicks needs your help. We are currently seeking a volunteer (ideally a parent or guardian with a child in the First Kicks grade) to help administratively coordinate the grade.

Responsibilities of this role include:

• Allocating players to teams
• Gear distribution to team managers and coaches
• Weekly draw
  
  

The First Kicks administrative grade coordinator would also have the assistance of another parent volunteer who will set up and run the Sunday game days, as well as OJFC’s coaching coordinator.

Full support will be given by other members of the OJFC Committee, to assist with any training and questions that may arise.

If you’d like to know more, please e-mail football@onslow.org.nz
