Parent Workshops

 

Two new volunteer workshops aimed at Parents are being piloted in the North West.

 

The first - “Parents Volunteer Workshop” - promotes parents getting involved in volunteer roles at clubs, whist the second - “A Parents Guide To Respect” - is a workshop designed at getting parents up to date at what is expected of spectators who attend games at local clubs, professional clubs and internationals.

 

The workshops generate plenty of discussion and help clubs to appreciate how parents can support the club as volunteers.

 

 Both workshops take only 20 minutes to be delivered and are available to all community clubs in the North West.

 

The Parent volunteer workshop includes information on;

 

*     The typical volunteer

*     Club Values

*     Benefits of volunteering

*     Club expectations

*     Impact of volunteering

 

Each area highlights ways a Parent can become involved in a club and volunteer just 30 minutes a week to their club and the impact that this could have!

 

The Parents guide to respect workshop provides parents with information on how they should behave whilst watching a game on the sidelines. It explains about being positive and encouraging respect amongst spectators, players, parents and referees.

 

Warrington Service area are hosting a joint workshop on Monday 3rd June at 6 - 7pm at Warrington collegiate.

 

We are looking for 5 parents that are not currently involved from each club in Warrington to attend and hopefully go back to their club with a new role in mind.

 

To book your place contact Alan Kilshaw, Warrington and Cheshire Rugby League Service Area Coordinator at AKilshaw@warrington.ac.uk or  01925 494624  01925 494624 / 07874308426.

A HAIR RAISING EVENT! For her 40th birthday, U11s Coach Steve had the dubious honour of shaving his wife's head!! She's not just had a mid-life crisis, she actually did it for a good cause - her mother has Alzheimer's and Lynn wants to raise the profile and raise funds for the Alzheimer's Society. She told all her family and friends to donate money instead of giving her presents, and in addition she had a sponsored head shave to raise as much as possible for a very worthy cause. 

A pre-season friendly against Rylands Sharks raised £66, and continuous fundraising, including raffles and donations has seen the total raise to over £1000, and money is still coming in. Lynn very bravely shaved her head in front of friends and family on Saturday 1st November. If anyone would like to add to her total please visit her online site http://www.justgiving.com/lynnmoore3
