Volunteers for Badminton School Games (Sports Centre, Jan 25th)

Active Lincolnshire will be delivering a Badminton School Games event at the Sports Centre on Thursday 25th January, 2018 and are in need of some additional volunteers to co-ordinate the day. The event starts at 9:00am so you will be expected to be at the sports centre by 8:40am at the very latest. The event should be all wrapped up by 12:30pm.

If you can only commit to part of the event then any help would be very much welcomed. Register your willingness to help by emailing Alex Blackett (ablackett@lincoln.ac.uk) before 12 noon on Wednesday 24th January, 2018.

Any volunteering hours that you commit to for this event will be signed off and can go towards your Lincoln Award.

University Football, Badminton & Netball Officer Positions

Sport at Lincoln are recruiting Higher Education Officers to be volunteer leaders whose role will be to help assist with the development of either Badminton, Netball or Football around the University (there’s one position in each sport). The successful candidates will also be required to also take lead the casual badminton, football or netball sessions. On average the role will take about four hours of voluntary work per week, but it’s flexible and will be fitted around the person’s studies.

This is a really good voluntary opportunity for anyone wanting to go into sports development work later on: the current HEOs have had the chance to attend national conferences and training days that have been paid for by the NGB: the Football Officer has been to St Georges park on a number of occasions and has also given a presentation to fellow University football officers at a recent national conference whilst the Badminton HEO has had her Badminton Level 1 paid for and officiated at the national BUCS Time Attack festival in February. The Netball Officer will have similar opportunities.
