Sports Volunteer
The YMCA Sports program is always looking for great volunteers to help out with various aspects of the program. Our sports leagues are 100% volunteer driven, meaning that every single coach out on the fields is a volunteer. We value these individuals and without them, our terrific programs would not be possible. If you are interested in becoming a coach, contact Jordan DuBois at 336-996-2231 or j.dubois@ymcanwnc.org, download and fill out the volunteer application below and turn it in to the front desk.
We also accept requests by students seeking community service hours for school or extra-curricular activities to volunteer at the Kernersville YMCA. Individuals that wish to volunteer in the sports department may be asked to help set up and break down games or practices, run the clocks and keep score at games, pass out or collect information on game days, or help with Y work days.
It is imperative that these individuals be upbeat and positive. We will not use volunteers that are not excited about being here. All such individuals should also contact Jordan DuBois and fill out and turn in the volunteer application found below. Not all applicants will be used. Parents should NOT call to set up volunteer hours for their kids!! The student themselves should take the initiative!
Any high school students or college students that need service hours and are interested in a particular sport should consider coaching a team for a season. Coaching requires approximately 20 hours of volunteer work each season(10 practices, 8 games, and meetings). This is a fun way to serve the community and teach kids the fundementals of sports and character development.
The YMCA is looking for volunteer coaches. If you want to put kids first, please fill out a volunteer application and check the coaches box on the registration form and contact Jordan DuBois at 336-996-2231 or j.dubois@ymcanwnc.org.
Apply to be a volunteer today!
