To maintain and enhance athletic opportunities for student-athletes, Sacred Heart School requires each participating student-athlete to volunteer at athletic events. The following sports are included under this agreement for Grades 6-12:

• Fall: Soccer, Volleyball, Girls Golf, Girls Tennis
• Winter: Basketball, Cheer
• Spring: Baseball, Track, Girls Soccer, Boys Golf, Boys Tennis

Each student-athlete in grades 6 through 12 is required to complete two (2) volunteer shifts per sport in which they participate. Acceptable assignments include:

• Concession Stand
• Gate Duty
• Gremlin Student Store

This requirement is per sport and per student-athlete. Example: A student playing both Fall and Spring sports requires 4 total shifts.

• An adult must accompany students in grades 6–8 during their shift.
• All volunteers must arrive at least 15 minutes before the scheduled shift start time.
• Late arrivals (5 minutes or more past the start time) will be required to work an additional shift.
• Missed shifts will result in a $125 charge to the Family’s FACTS account.
• Families are encouraged to find a replacement if they are unable to attend a scheduled shift. The replacement’s hours may count toward either family’s obligation.
• Spring sports need to complete their shifts during fall and winter activities. We have minimal opportunities during the spring.
• All accounts will be billed in FACTS for shifts not worked.
• Hours worked by the student for the student-athlete agreement may also count towards the student’s religion, NHS, and NJHS service hours. These are submitted by the school office on the student’s behalf.

 

Opt-Out Option
Families who do not wish to complete volunteer shifts may opt out. An Opt-Out Fee of $250 per sport, per student-athlete will be charged to the Family’s FACTS account in place of service.
