MSC is a volunteer run organization. Many tasks must be completed throughout the entire year, with many needs not being directly soccer knowledge related. Volunteers help the organization run smoothly and help to keep fees affordable. Without volunteers, items will either not be completed or must be outsourced for payment, having an impact on fees.
Complete your volunteer commitment: MSC regularly review our volunteer needs. The current model is 2 hours per In-House player registration. Hours may be completed prior to, during, or after the season (only if signed up during the season for an after the season commitment). Typical season time ranges: Spring: Early April to May Fall: early September - October
Opt-out opportunity: MSC understands that people are busy, and time is often limited, or families have multiple commitments. We offer an opt-out opportunity where $30 can be paid. This provides a buffer in financials so that if items must be outsourced for services, it will not impact other items being purchased or registration fees increasing.
Volunteer hours are not completed: The goal of the volunteer policy is to maintain and grow the club through community involvement and participation. If hours are not completed, this can have a negative impact on the club through items not being completed or items being outsourced, without the opt-out fees allocated to cover these costs. There are opportunities for after the season ends, but if opportunities have not been signed up for, a non-volunteer fee may be assessed
In addition to volunteers, we are always looking to help add more referees. Refs are independent contractors and can ref any games, not just Milton. Milton offers several bonus programs to help referees with certification, recertification and to encourage coverage of multiple games.
We also from season to season evaluate our needs for traveling coaches based on the quantity of players and teams. Traveling coaches should have some soccer knowledge and then we highly encourage additional education/licensing (reimbursed) and at some levels, certain licensing is required.
