Volunteers are a huge part of our club. The club wouldn’t exist without them, so there’s always a big challenge of recruiting new volunteers and keeping them engaged. Chris Armond, Berkhamsted Raiders CFC

Why is volunteer engagement important?
As with most things, volunteer recruitment and management should be built on a foundation of mutual encouragement and respect. Volunteers need to feel valued and appreciated – after all they give up so much to keep the club running. Whether that’s a pair of helping hands marking out pitches or painting a club house, it all helps and allows the club to function.
