Program Assistants
These are volunteer StarSkaters in our Club who assist our Coaches on CanSkate sessions. They serve as “role models” to the younger skaters and assist in the following areas
- Assisting/leading warm-ups, group activities or cool-downs
- Leading circuits/rotations
- Demonstrating proper execution of skating skills
- Providing assistance to skaters who may have additional needs.
- Taking attendance, timing speed skills
- Providing general assistance to the coaches on the session
- Providing encouragement and general feedback to skaters
The hours that a PA volunteers are recorded/tracked by the Coaches. Students requiring volunteer hours for High School graduation may request to have a letter written by KFSC for this purpose. It is a great way to get involved with your Club!
Skaters interested in volunteering as a Program Assistant should contact CanSkate Coordinator Shannon Balabardin at nsb_sk8@yahoo.ca
