Volunteer Policy, Roles and Points

 2024 VOLUNTEER Information

Purpose

The purpose of the Axemen Volunteer Bond Program is to encourage all Association members to become actively involved in the operation and success of the Axemen Lacrosse Club.

Overview

Many of our club members are unaware of just how much volunteer work and fundraising is necessary to operate and administer a quality lacrosse program. The volunteer bond program was introduced to encourage Axemen Lacrosse members to step forward and help. The time commitment is not unreasonable, and the help is beneficial and appreciated!! Participation in the volunteer bond program is a mandatory component of registration with Axemen Lacrosse and in no way does it exclude families from volunteering with their player’s team.

Volunteer Hours Required

The Axemen Club requires families to satisfy a 200-point/per player - 400-points/per family volunteer bond by fulfilling one of the club or team volunteer positions below during the Spring Box Season.  Those not wanting to fill any of the listed positions will be charged a $400 fee during the registration process.

10 hours equals 200 points per player

20 hours equals 400 points max per family

U7 - A bond is not required; however, we appreciate all those families who make the experience for our new Lacrosse Families memorable.

More than one player - Family Bond Max 400 points(max$800 per family)

Reporting Responsibility

It is each family’s own responsibility to ensure they meet the Volunteer Bond Program commitments and ensure that their hours are reported accurately to the club. The Manager of each team will aid families with the tracking of their bond.
