We are in need of volunteers for the upcoming 2014 NBBL season. Online player registration has been open since early January with 200+ players already registered. We now need the following volunteers to be able to organize and run the NBBL season and provide the best experience for the players participating in the league.
• Team Coaches
• We need coaches for each individual team. Please see the Division info further below for a listing of Divisions vs. grades.
• Please volunteer as a head or assistant coach for a division. Or alternatively, volunteer with another person to co-coach a team.
• Division Coordinators
• We need a person in each division to take the lead coordinating that division. This could be one of the coaches in that division, or a non-coaching parent in that division.
• General Coordinators
• We need volunteers to help with the general administrative tasks involved in running the league: games scheduling, referees, timekeepers & scorekeepers, treasurer, equipment & facilities, etc.
• This could be any parent; no level of basketball experience is needed to help out.
• Sponsors
• The NBBL is seeking sponsorship to subsidize this year’s league. Specifically, if the NBBL is to provide extra training by the Top Flight coaches this season similar to last season, we need additional funding since the revenue from registration fees alone is not enough to cover those costs. If any organizations or individuals are willing to provide sponsorship funds, or have any recommendations, please contact info@nbbl.asia. We are seeking to put sponsor logos onto the player’s jerseys, amongst other possibilities.
Please consider volunteering, especially if you have children participating and regardless of your familiarity with basketball. If you have any interest, please email info@nbbl.asia to discuss.
