Peer Buddies Needed for Soccer Program for Children with Special Needs at Rock View Elementary in Kensington

Expired

Description

Open Door Sports provides after-school soccer 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 Rock View Elementary in Kensington runs from 3:30 - 4:30pm every Wednesday afternoon for a 7 week period beginning on April 1st.  The session ends on May 20 and the rain date is june 3.  We prefer for peer buddies to commit to the entire 7 week session but are open to having them come for alternative schedules.
