VELA runs on 100% volunteer power
Executive Volunteers keep the Association moving forward. Our Executive Board is inclusive, supportive, and every member works towards the same goals: keeping VELA a fun and safe place for kids who love lacrosse. We share responsibilities to help each member maintain a healthy balance between volunteering and work/family life.
Our Managers are the glue that holds the team together. Whether organizing player information, coordinating events, or just running the score clock, Managers are essential at VELA.
Volunteering seems overwhelming? Split the role with a friend and divide tasks!
Current openings:
- 2024 Season Registrar (mid level commitment)
- Event Coordinators
- Female Lax Volunteers
Questions about volunteering?
We acknowledge and thank the Lkwungen People, represented by the Songhees and Esquimalt First Nations, for allowing us to live, work and play on their lands.
We also give thanks for sharing the gift of the Creator's Game which has the power to heal people and communities.
A huge thank you to our community support and sponsors!
