VOLUNTEER SUPPORT OFFICER

An AFL Victoria Volunteer Support Officer is primarily responsible for assisting community football clubs to undertake tasks which will save current club volunteers some of the demands which they currently face.

The purpose is to decrease the workload and burden on club volunteers by decreasing the tasks they might need to do for their club.

This assistance may include:
