We would love to have you volunteer with the Badgers. For the safety of our kids some of the volunteer positions, such as timekeeper, scorer and penalty box attendant, require a little more than willingness. Other positions such as team manager or locker room monitor require a few things to ensure that our kids are kept safe. Fear not! It is not so bad. You may already have some of the necessary clearances if you helped out with your kid's other sports or school activities.
Below are the requirements for volunteers that can come in contact with the kids.
