This week is National Volunteers’ Week.
Baulko is a community based football club run entirely by volunteers. It’s exhausting, challenging, relentless work for enormous benefit to over 1,000 BHFC members. From our competitions to our celebrations, from our website to our uniforms, our canteen to our field marking, our grading to our trials, from mentoring to our committees, it’s all done by volunteers.
It’s those selfless members who see a need and pitch in and get the job done, for no other reason, than: it needs to be done. It's hours preparing training sessions, sitting through meetings, planning and implementing, reviewing and modifying. It’s rosters, draws, schedules and timetables. Grading, trials, re-scheduled games etc etc… It’s 11 months of work for a 6 month competition. For every person who has mowed our lines, measured out fields, participated in working bees, set up goals, emptied our bins…. Coached, managed, cooked, cleaned, built, planned, served, supervised, coordinated, administered, guided or inspired. It’s all of you who are the Baulko army of volunteers. We thank you and we know sometimes it’s not easy, but it is so very rewarding.
Thank you for every job you do.
WE LOVE OUR VOLUNTEERS! #GoBaulko
