Volunteer Requirements

The Knights Hockey Club is only able to exist because of its dedicated volunteers. Board members, organizers, coordinators, coaches, assistant coaches, tournament organizers, and administrators are just a small part of the incredible group of volunteers that helps make this organization what it is.

Volunteer Bond Overview

Many of our club members are unaware of just how much volunteer work and fundraising is necessary to operate and administer a quality hockey program. The volunteer bond program was introduced to encourage Knights Hockey Club members to step forward and help. The time commitment is not unreasonable, and the help is beneficial and appreciated!! Participation in the volunteer bond program is a mandatory component of registration with KHC and in no way does it exclude families from volunteering with their player’s team. 

Community Level: The value of the Volunteer Bond is set at $500.00 per family per year.

If a family has players in both the community stream and House League, the volunteer bond is $500 per family per year.

Volunteer Hours Required

A minimum of 15 hours of KHC approved volunteer work is required to fulfill each family’s Volunteer Bond obligations per season. 5 volunteer hours will be at association level, with the 10 remaining volunteer hours at team level or split between team and association levels. Reminder: Although a members volunteer bond may be complete, members still have the obligations to their player(s) team and must actively contribute at the team level to  ensure the workload is shared amongst all members of the team.  There are many opportunities to volunteer throughout the season. A list of Board approved volunteer positions will be posted on the website each season.
