GET INVOLVED
Become a Team Player with Heathwaite FC
"If you would like to get involved as a Player, Coach, Volunteer, Fundraiser, Sponsor or you have another suggestion, please get in touch."
Players
We are always looking for new players. We run junior teams for 6 – 16 year old boys and girls. So if you would like to join one of our teams please contact the manager of the relevant team or register online.
​
Managers & Coaches
We are a grassroots club so we rely on people stepping forward to help run the teams as managers and coaches. It is often parents of players in the teams, but it doesn’t have to be.
​
We will support any new coaches with equipment, training and guidance. The club will pay for coaches to attend Safeguarding and First Aid courses as well as undertake FA Coaching Qualifications. This is a great opportunity to get involved in grassroots football coaching, so please get in touch.
​
Volunteers
We rely on the local community to run the club so we are always looking for new volunteers. We need all kinds of skills to keep the club running not just the obvious football related stuff or the fundraising mentioned below, so please have a think if you could help.
Even if you cannot commit on a regular basis it would be great to know that we could draw on skills when we need them, for example joiners, electricians, builders, gardeners, decorators, accountants, solicitors etc. We will simply note your contact details and get in touch when we need that particular skill. If you think you can help in any way please get in touch.
​
Fundraisers
We are looking for people to help fundraise for the club. There are lots of grants, potential sponsors and opportunities that we could tap into if we had more people helping us. It could be applying for smaller grants for new equipment or getting involved with our fundraising events like the Heathwaite FC Summer Tournament.
We would also like to find people with experience of bigger funding applications so we can target grants for our infrastructure projects. If you think you could help please get in touch.
​
Sponsors
If you would like to sponsor any of the teams or become a club sponsor please get in touch. It is very important that we get the support of the local business community and in return we will do our best to offer great publicity by promoting sponsors on our website and across our social media channels. Plus there is a brilliant opportunity to get really positive local press coverage.
