We are all volunteers

The NLBA is run by a dedicated group of volunteer executives and coaches. We welcome new coaches and offer coaching clinics each year put on by Basketball BC as well as reference materials for running weekly practices.

​Each year the executive seeks new volunteers as our league continues to grow and thrive. Many hands make light work and any time you may have to volunteer is welcome– from assembling coaching kits for season start up, coordinating photo night or our jamboree day, game schedule coordinator or age group coordinators.

Opportunities
Volunteer opportunities are now open.

Volunteer Deposit
​What is the Volunteer Deposit?
​
All NLBA families with children in U9, U11, U13, U15, U18 and Metro Teams will be required to provide a $100 Volunteer Deposit Cheque (post-dated to March 1, 2020, payable to NLBA) on their child’s assessment night.  Your child will not be evaluated without this cheque.  One deposit is required per family. 
IMPORTANT:  Please put all your children’s first and last names and divisions in the cheque memo.

What is the Volunteer Deposit for?

​Each family will be required to complete one volunteer opportunity over the course of the season.  If your volunteer requirement is completed your cheque will not be cashed. 
 
If you have more than one child playing, you will only need to complete one volunteer opportunity.  NOTE: Families with a child in U7 or Girls’ Academy only are excluded from volunteer requirements.  Volunteer duties will range in their commitment level and may be completed by a parent, grandparent, or responsible older child (high school age and up).  Some examples of opportunities available will include:

  • Assessment night volunteers
  • Team parent/manager
  • Scorekeeping (3 games)
  • Operating the game clock (3 games)
  • Pick up and/or return of game clock for each game
  • Clock storage (for division for the season)
  • Photo Night Volunteers
  • Jamboree Volunteers
 
Sign up will be through a web platform called VolunteerSignup.org to help us keep track of all our opportunities and volunteers.  Emails with links to sign up for opportunities in each division will be sent out throughout the season.  You may volunteer for any division that you would like.  Please click on the sign up links in the email or visit this page to find current links.  All executive positions, division coordinators, coaches, and assistant coaches will automatically have their volunteer duties fulfilled. 
 
What if I do not volunteer?
 
If you do not complete a volunteer opportunity throughout the course of the season your $100 post-dated volunteer deposit cheque will be cashed after March 1.  Your deposit will go towards supporting North Langley Basketball. 
 
Thank for your contribution to making this a great season for our North Langley Basketball players!
