All clubs survive on the efforts of their volunteers. The ECB have produced a series of fantastic guides on every aspect of recruiting, retaining and relating to volunteers new and existing.
This includes
- Tips on finding new volunteers
- Appointing a volunteer co-ordinator
- Descriptions of the various roles to which a club may need to recruit volunteers
- Outside organisations who may offer assistance
- Ensuring that newcomers feel welcome at your club
- Reward and recognition programmes for volunteers

In addition to these guides, in order to help clubs recruit and manage their volunteers effectively, a new E-learning course has been created. Similar to the current Safeguarding E-learning course, it allows candidates to learn in their own time. If you would like more information on this course please email patricia.hankins@nccc.co.uk
