Working with what ever you love the most
We work in small teams, with regular online meetings, where we discuss opportunities and tasks. Whether you are volunteering around the sports, the families, administrative tasks or driving your nerdy passion, you always have great influence on your tasks, because we know that when we have fun, with a high degree of reciprocity, the relationship just lasts longer 🙂
Volunteering close to families
Do you want to support children and young people with special needs to laugh, be proud and make lots of friends?
In close collaboration with our partner clubs, the task is to get the team and the individual young person to function in the best possible way around the sport, themselves and the group in general. You’re never responsible for teaching or the sporting field – we always work with sports clubs that provide training and facilities.
The young person’s challenge can be mental, physical or developmental, which means that we have children who are developmentally disabled, have literacy diagnoses or simply need a safer environment to start their sport. Children should be challenged athletically at their own level, while learning to accommodate each other.
The expectation for you is
- That you show up for training every week (we roughly follow the school year schedule),
- Getting to know the children and their individual needs
- that you have contact with parents, in person and/or via Facebook groups
- that you collaborate and spar with the coaches around the children, training and periodically plan and participate in events, such as graduations, training matches, competitions, etc.
- that you collaborate closely with the people behind Specialsport.dk and follow the values and goals we have with our efforts
We offer
- Lots of great moments with amazing kids
- Backing and support when you need it
- Reimbursement of expenses
- Training activities for children and young people with special needs
- Testimonials and documentation of your volunteering efforts
