2 Parent Work Bond Commitment The Durham Jr. Trojans ( DJT ) require that each family donate a minimum of 10 volunteer hours per child or 15 hours for families who have multiple kids in the program. I understand that if I choose to not volunteer my time I have the option to buy out my volunteer hours for $ This decision must be made by the Mandatory Parent meeting on April 23, 2017 and paid in full at that time. There will be a sign-up sheet at the mandatory parent meeting with the available volunteer slots for home games and away games. All volunteers must comply with the rules as set forth in the 2017 Norcal Fed rule book. Once you have signed up for a slot you will be expected to be there. If you are not able to work, it will be up to you to find a substitute and to inform the Volunteer Coordinator with the changes in order to have your substitute s hours counted. Any volunteer hours credited to your child must be approved and assigned by the Volunteer Coordinator. Any hours not approved or assigned by the volunteer coordinator may not be counted toward your hours worked. If you do not work your assigned hours over the season, we will be forced to send out a bill for $ or $20.00 per hour to cover the cost of a paid replacement. Your child will not be eligible to sign up for the next season until your bill is paid in full. It is our goal to keep Durham Junior Trojan costs to a minimum and, with parents volunteers, we believe we can do this. In order for our organization to be successful we must have 100% parent support and involvement. I have read the above information and fully understand and agree to volunteer at least 10 hours during the football season if I have an individual child or 15 hours if I have more than one child in the program. If I do not, I understand I will be receiving a bill for the hours not worked and my child will not be able to sign up for the following season. As a volunteer, I agree to comply with the rules as set forth in the 2017 Norcal Fed rule book.
