Volunteers

Volunteering with WHU

Volunteers are the lifeblood of our community organization. From coaching and team-management to jersey-folding and banner-hanging, there are so many fun opportunities to contribute to your soccer player’s club, which in turn helps us to keep our program costs as low as possible. Volunteer sign-up events will come out regularly throughout the year, and credits will be given for subsequent seasons.
