Snack Coordinators (formally known as Team Parent)
When registering, please consider signing up to be a snack coordinator (aka team parent)!
PLEASE NOTE, to sign up you have to "enroll" yourself as a volunteer, separately from your child. Unlike coaches, there's no discount for being a Snack Coordinator, just the fuzzy feeling you get from helping kids get their snacks.
JP Children's Soccer is about gathering with your neighbors and having an opportunity to get outside. The kids get to run around with their friends and have fun and learn about being on a team, but really, it's all about the snacks!
In this role, you will bring snacks and drinks for the first practice, and will organize the other parents to ensure that someone is bringing the snacks each week, sending out reminders each week. You can split it up so someone brings snacks, someone brings drinks, or just have one person do both each week. In addition to making the snack schedule, the team parent is in charge of distributing t-shirts and making sure every child gets their name on the front and back of their t-shirt on the first day of practice. It's quite an easy job, really.
At the end of each week's practice, your kids will have the chance to gather with their teammates and have something to eat and drink. They love it, you'll have some too, and for kids of this age, as much fun as soccer is, the snacks are what they look forward to the most.
