Volunteer working with young players.

Volunteers

A club is so much more than its players

A FOOTBALL CLUB IS ABOUT FAR MORE THAN THE PLAYERS ON THE PITCH

Northamptonshire FA is committed to supporting the volunteers in club football that make up the backbone of grassroots football.

A well-run club should feature the backroom staff of a fixtures secretary, fundraisers, a club welfare officer and a chairman to oversee the club’s constitution, as well as frontline first-aiders to act as physios and team coaches.

The FA recognises the value of volunteers and provides guides to clubs on how to recruit, retain and reward their work.
