Volunteer Coaches: (New for 2026)
For up to three volunteer coaches per team, Maize Rec will provide registration fee refunds in the form of an account credit. The head coach will receive a full refund of their child’s registration fee, and each assistant coach will receive a half refund. Account credits may be applied toward future Maize Rec sports or programs.
Refunds will be issued at the end of the season, provided that both coaches remain in good standing with our program by:
- Passing a background check
- Upholding the coaches code of conduct (no unsportsmanlike conduct)
- Maintaining consistent attendance at practices and games
All volunteers will be vetted by the Sports Director, and the most qualified/experienced candidates will be selected. Marking “Yes” to volunteering on the registration form does not guarantee selection.
