The Energize Volunteer Academy supports the delivery of School Games events across Shropshire, Telford and Wrekin.
The events take place throughout the academic year and include inter-school events and county School Games festival days.
Our volunteers experience a variety of roles from scoring and officiating to marshalling races and managing small activities.
Who is it for? The Energize Volunteer Academy is for anyone aged 16+ with a passion for making sport and physical activity happen across Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin.
How much time do I need to commit? There is no time commitment, we ask our volunteers to give as much time as they are able to.
Energize Volunteer Academy members also receive free kit and training depending on the amount of hours they are involved.
“I would definitely recommend volunteering - you never know where it might take you! Through volunteering I have met so many different people from various backgrounds who have helped me get where I am today. Although you might feel that volunteering is not for you or it’s not the 'popular' thing to do, it can really help you develop skills, improve your CV and gain valuable work experience.”
“I enjoyed being part of everything and it was great knowing that I was contributing to the organisation and running of the event.”
“From day one I felt like part of the team”
As well as volunteering at our School Games events, there are various volunteer roles at local events (large scale and smaller scale) along with club volunteer roles such as a coach; social media role or committee member. All providing valuable experience, skills and enjoyment within the sport and physical activity environment.
