Volunteer Policy, Roles and Points

 2025 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 Club 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 with the expectation that hours will be completed at the organization and team level. To ensure adequate support for every team, each family must complete at least 5 hours at the team level.

Volunteer Hours Required

The Axemen lacrosse Club requires each family to fulfill a 200-point per player / 400- point per family volunteer bond during the Spring Box Season. Points can be earned by taking on one of the designated club or team volunteer positions. Families who choose not to participate will be charged a $400 fee during registration.
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.
