Ask Menna
Volunteer roles
Lines, turnstile, tea hut, programme, social media, the bar. You do not need to like football. Nobody has been paid here since 1921.
Seven people run most of this club and the youngest of them is fifty-eight. If you can spare a Saturday now and then, or a couple of hours midweek, there is a job for you. You do not have to like football. Two of the best people we have do not.
We need help on the turnstile, in the tea hut and on the line-marker. Then there is the programme, which needs writing and printing every other week, and social media, which Menna admits she does badly. The bar needs a rota, and the ground needs someone who can use a strimmer.
If you are a student or doing your awards, we can sign that off. If you only have two hours a month, that is two hours more than we had. Anyone working around under-18s, such as helping with the youth trials, will have a DBS check paid for by the club.
What is involved
- A free tea and a free game
- A club coat, if you stay
- Training for the bar and first aid, paid for
- Signing off for awards and references
- The gratitude of a seventy-six-year-old with a line marker
What it costs
It costs a Saturday now and then, and you get a free tea. Read the rest on the prices table. The fixtures show when we are next at home.
Questions about volunteer roles
What needs doing most urgently?
The programme and the tea hut. Ask Menna, and she will find you something by Saturday.
Can I just help occasionally?
Yes. Everything here runs on occasionally.
Five pounds, a hot tea and a bit of shouting.
Saturday, Glan Taf Ground, a five-minute walk from Taffs Well station. Under-16s free with an adult. The clubhouse is open after the game, and you do not need to know anybody.
