Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteer with CARD!

Youth Sports Volunteer:

We need your help! Our awesome volunteers are what makes our programs so special. We are looking for dedicated people who are interested in spreading a "love of the game" while helping youth in a positive and safe environment. Each position requires getting fingerprinted, attending a pre-season and on-site meeting, holding one practice a week during the season, and attending games.

We are currently recruiting Head Coach and Assistant Coaches for youth sports teams (5th grade and below). Typically volunteers only spend 3-4 hours per week for the duration of the season.
