Please don’t be shy we have such a great time working together to develop our club and many hands do make light work.

Dynamic Junior Volunteers Club
This program has been designed to increase the number of, and participation by, young volunteers within our club and to ensure that all members develop in the area that they most wish too.
The program aims to help our members aged between 13 and 17 years develop skills in:
• Leadership & team work
• Administration
• Fundraising & organisation
• Coaching
• Umpiring
• Sports participation
Members will work with mentors who will monitor their progress and achievements. After completion of each of the stages, a Club Volunteer certificate and in some of the programs a State certificate will be issued.

This program will:
• Provide young people with the opportunity to develop valuable leadership qualities through participating in sport;
• Develop a skilled volunteers base for our club
• Provide young members with the opportunitiy to work as a team not only in the sport but in all other areas
This program is designed for our members to excel not just in the playing the sport of Netball but in other important areas of Umpiring Coaching and Administration.
Parents and family members of the club will also be encouraged to participate in this exciting new program

How does it all happen?
After meeting with parents and potential members, interested participants will complete a registration form with parent’s signature.
All practical activities will commence after the Easter Break and Conclude in December school holidays with a camp to the Gold Coast.
On the completion of each activity the participant will record entries into their logbook. Space is available for the supervisor to make a short comment about the activity and the coordinator/mentor will sign each completed section.
Once a Step is completed the participant will be awarded a certificate of completion. This will be awarded at the next get-together
At the end of the year members would have been raising funds to support a 4-5 day trip away during the Christmas Holidays to the Gold Coast & Brisbane (details are to be determined by the DJV club).
