We would not be able to continue without the support of our volunteers. There are many formal roles you can volunteer for, besides Committee roles [Click here to view the Committee Page] as well as general skills needed enabling our members to volunteer in an ad hoc fashion or at a time and in a way that works for them.
Coaches
Coaching is a rewarding way to give back to the support, build skill in our young athletes and get involved in basketball in a different way. Our volunteer coaches include parents, older players or family and friends of the club. As a coach, you will be offered training, equipment and support. Coaches have one training session per week on a Monday to Thursday, and games on Saturday. While there is an expectation that coaches will attend as many training sessions or games as possible, they may ask other parents or club members to step in for them from time to time if they have other commitments.
Email teams@banyulehawks.com.au to enquire about coaching.
Team Selectors
Our Team Selectors provide support to the Team Coordinator to organise teams at the beginning of each season. The Team Selectors will watch games throughout the season, talk to coaches, and compile teams once registrations close. They will also assist in resolving any issues with team selections and requests for changes.
Email teams@banyulehawks.com.au to enquire about Team Selector roles.

Other ways to volunteer
We are always keen for volunteers to contribute to the club. Volunteering helps build a sense of community and encourages participation by our younger players. Some of the ways you can volunteer include:
- Lending your IT skills to help us improve our systems
- Providing photography, media, graphic design or communication skills to help us with our communication strategy
- Event planning – for presentation day or social events
- Fundraising activities
- Education and promotion – we are always keen for volunteers to run programs that help our players or coaches or help us give a taste of the sport to potential new players.
