WHS Girl's Soccer Ball-Shaggers

Details

Volunteers will sign up to chase after the ball when it is kicked out of bounds during a Varsity or JV match. This is an important job, because it keeps the pace of the game going. Volunteers will need to be able to stand for long periods of time and run or walk quickly to retrieve the ball. They will need to arrive to the game they signed up for on time and stay until the game is over and the equipment is collected.
