Each player's family is asked to help with volunteer duties during home matches. Everyone pitching in makes everything run more smoothly!
Parents should consider which type of volunteer shifts they prefer. The options are:
1. Concessions stand
2. Scorebook and game clock
3. Varsity live streaming (JV and varsity parents only)
Parents who prefer concessions shifts must sign up for 7 slots. Those willing to do varsity live streaming OR scorebook and game clock assignments are only required to fill 4 slots. The book/clock slots are combined, so even if you only hope to do the clock, you must be trained on the scorebook, as a backup.
If you sign up for book/clock slots, and have no experience doing the scorebook, you must watch this 28-minute training video, AND stay after the Welcome Luncheon on Saturday, August 10 for an additional 1-hour training session.
If you sign up for varsity live streaming slots, you will need a Facebook account and be able to use your smartphone to stream the entire varsity match. Make sure your smartphone is fully charged when you arrive. A tripod will be provided on site, as will a secondary device that will be used to show the score of the match on video. You will need to sit near the camera the entire match, muting audio during timeouts, and moving the camera to the opposite side of the arena after each set.
Concessions workers do NOT have to participate in any training. All volunteers must complete the background check.
Please note match times - they are not as consistent as they have been in past years. Also, some varsity live streaming shifts are for games AWAY from home. Make sure to note these specifics before you sign up for a shift.
Families from the freshman teams should work shifts in the Navy Gym. JV and Varsity families work shifts in the Arena.
We certainly don't expect you to work while your daughter is playing. So, for example, if your daughter is on Freshman Navy (A), you should sign up for slots during Freshman Silver (B) games, and vice versa. That way you won't miss any of the action.
By Thursday, August 8, all parents must sign up for shifts on this Sign-Up Genius link.
