Benefits of Volunteering
While the benefits of volunteering are specific to each individual, the inclusive environment of a community rugby club is a rewarding place to be for people with differing sets of skills. There are opportunities for people of all ages to get involved and some of the benefits include:
- Having fun!
- The positive feeling of having made a difference
- Spending more time with your kids
- Meeting new people and broadening your social network
- Giving something back to the club and the community
- Building self-esteem and confidence
- Learning and developing new skills
- Enhancing work experience, perhaps building a CV
- Being active and improving health and wellbeing
