SBYSL has many opportunities for volunteers, from middle and high school students working on their community service hours, to adults who want to support the game of soccer. We need coaches, assistant coaches, and referees, but also greatly value the "behind the scenes" skills that you may have to offer with planning, communications, web design, scheduling, uniform distribution, field maintenance, or anything else!
Please use our online contact form to tell us about yourself and your volunteering interests. Thanks!
All SBYSL coaches must pass a background check conducted by JDP. You will receive an email from a league representative requesting basic information to initiate the process. Please respond quickly.
