Volunteer

Volunteers:

Our programs are run through our amazing volunteers. There are multiple ways to volunteer each season as we need head coaches, assistant coaches, and referees. Let us know if you are interested at BerlinVTAthletics@gmail.com.

For the safety of our youth all coaches, assistant coaches, and general team volunteers must complete a Level 2 background check. It is valid for 2 school years. This process takes some time, so please let us know in advance if you are interested in coaching so we can start the background check process early!
