Volunteering

Orkney Athletic & Running Club is run by Volunteers. The success of the Club now and in the future relies upon the goodwill of our club members, their families and our local community.

We need support from parents/adults to ensure that the Club continues to cater for our growing number of athletes.

The Club welcomes and values all volunteers, providing support and training and trying to give volunteers experiences which match their talents, interests and lifestyles.

The following list highlights the main areas where help is regularly needed. Please indicate all those which you feel you could help with, or which you would be willing to be contacted about for further discussion.

Help the Coaches

This can be as an informal parent helper on Club nights, but the Club can also arrange UKA coach education courses for those wishing to become a qualified Coach or Coaching Assistant

Help with Competitions – General

Setting up equipment, assisting Coaches and Officials, helping event organisers (refreshments, tent erection, photography skills, etc)

Help with Competitions – Officials

Duties include timekeeping, measuring distances, recording results, etc. Training will be provided – and REALLY not as scary as it sounds!

Help with Club Fundraising

Assist with fundraising efforts, eg. Bagpacking, Blue Door, Raffles, organising events, etc

Help with Club administration and finance duties

Crucial, behind the scenes work to keep the Club running smoothly (Are you familiar with spreadsheets and/or databases? Do you enjoy compiling and updating lists or records? Do you enjoy working with others and leading or helping on tasks?)

Help with Social Media and Website Updating

Do you have the skills to help keep the membership informed about club activities and events via social media and/or website (wordpress)

Do you have any other skills that you can offer the club?

The Club is collecting your personal details for the purposes of recruiting volunteers and will hold them securely. We will hold these details for as long as you are involved with the Club and use them for the purposes related to Club volunteering and training opportunities, activities and events. We will contact you periodically to check that these details are up to date.
