Open Door Sports provides after-school sports programs to children with special needs and is looking for middle and high school aged peer buddies to volunteer their time to work with a player and help them find success on the field while enjoying the benefits of sports. The program is run by two coaches and the role of their peer buddy is to assist the players, allowing them to get the most out of their time playing. The program at Judith A. Resnik Elementary in Gaithersburg runs from 3:30 - 4:30pm every Thursday afternoon for a 7 week period beginning on September 12. The session ends on October 24. We prefer for peer buddies to commit to the entire 7 week session but are open to having them come for alternative schedules.
