Ridgefield Youth Lacrosse needs you. As our organization continues to grow each year, so does our need for help to enable our programs to run smoothly. Lacrosse is a truly great sport with a rich history and unique cultural heritage. We’re proud that so many young Ridgefielders are a part of the lax community, but to properly serve our lax athletes RYL needs many hands.
We have had the benefit of a number of longstanding, committed volunteers who wore countless hats and selflessly devoted many years of their time to help run our organization for the benefit of all of our children. They, soon to be joined by others, no longer have children in the program and have moved on to enjoy the fruits of their labor as their kids prosper in high school and beyond.
RYL is now seeking the next generation of volunteers to help our organization move forward. We need “doers” – collaborative individuals who are organized, efficient and possess an abundance of follow through – to manage a number of open roles and responsibilities in the organization.
The following roles are open:
Volunteer Coordinator and Fundraising: Work with Board to solicit volunteers at each grade level to help organize team parties, plan fundraising events, etc.
Website/Social Media: Serve as point person for updating and adding content to website, managing Facebook and Instagram pages and utilizing social media outlets to communicate and publicize RYL events, activities and information.
Coaches and Assistant Coaches: Adults with lacrosse experience are needed for boys and girls teams. We are looking for individuals who are eager to share their knowledge of the game in a positive, fun and instructional team culture appropriate for the grade level.
Please consider volunteering. We simply cannot sustain a quality program of this size without you. For more information about any of the roles please email us at ridgefieldlax@gmail.com. Planning goes on year-round so we look forward to hearing from you very soon and welcoming new members to our team!
