Volunteers – the beating heart of your club

Volunteers keep your club ticking every day. They do it for the passion and dedication they have to their sport and their people.

It’s proven - volunteers are happier, healthier and even sleep better than those who don’t volunteer. Just a few hours a week can make a big difference to anyone’s mood.

At the same time, Good Sports clubs know that recruiting and maintaining active membership is a big deal. You rely on volunteers to keep the club running, but it can be hard knowing where to start looking for these happy helpers.

We’ve put together some practical pointers on bringing in and keeping those amazing volunteers, so everyone wins.
