Congrats to all Three Teams for Representing Club Ohio Well!!
Nike Cup Chairpersons Needed
As many of you that have been involved in soccer in this area may know, our club hosts one of the biggest tournaments in the region each spring - The Club Ohio Nike Challenge Cup. Most people locally refer to it simply as the Nike Challenge Cup. We hold this tournament every April over two weekends (one for the boys and one for the girls). The 2012 dates are:
- Girls: April 21-22, 2012
- Boys: April 28-29, 2012
Our tournament is one of the largest in the region fielding over 600 teams (between the two weekends). We hold the tournament at multiple sites: Darree Fields, Soccer First, Spindler Fields and Cooper Fields. We end up hosting over 22,000 people between players, families, coaches, etc. We are looking forward to another successful year as is the City of Dublin. We book all the hotels in Dublin and beyond stretching to the east side of town and even downtown Columbus.
One of the keys to our success is our club’s volunteers. We absolutely can’t pull this off without every parent contributing. In the spring, we’ll be reaching out to you to fill various needs (e.g. field marshals, t-shirt sales, hospitality, etc.). However, we have an immediate need for leadership roles – chairing a committee. We’ve already begun planning and need people to start the preparation for the spring.
Below is a list of our openings. If you are interested in any of these positions, please contact Missy Grether, Tournament Director at kdgreth@aol.com. I’d be happy to discuss any of these positions with you.
Scoring: We already have some seasoned veterans in place but need another 2-4 folks willing to fill this committee. These volunteers enter all the scores of the weekend and ensure that teams are properly advanced in brackets where the system doesn’t advance the teams. Or, they work through any tiebreakers. Most work for this committee takes place the weekend of the tournament.
Hotel Liason: This individual works closely with the tournament director and the hotels to ensure that teams can find openings for our tournament. Much of the contract work is already complete. The bulk of the work occurs January – April as hotels start filling up. And, this person works to put referees in rooms. One to two people needed.
T-shirts: This committee works closely with the tournament director in determining the t-shirt design. They will handle all communications with the t-shirt vendor and be responsible for pre-orders and tournament weekend sales. They’ll be in charge of scheduling volunteers to work during the tournament weekend. Need 2-4 people.
Registration: This committee is responsible for receiving and processing all mail/email registrations and coordinating the Friday Night Registration Event. Five people are already in place. We really need help for the girls weekend!
Hospitality: This committee provides food and beverage at each site for the referees. They are responsible for scheduling volunteers, determining amount of food needed (and what kind), and delivery of all items to the site. 4-6 people needed.
Schedule Guide: This person works closely with the tournament director on putting together the schedule guide for distribution to all participants. They handle communications with the vendor and coordinate any ads sold for placement in the guide. Not necessarily required to sell ads. Just quarterback the coordination. 1-2 people needed.
Field Marshals: This committee schedules volunteer field marshals and provides instructions for these volunteers the weekend of the tournament. Strong organization and communication skills needed. 2 people needed.
Sponsorships: This individual may seek sponsors for in-kind or monetary donations to the tournament. Someone with an outgoing nature and local business contacts would be ideal. Need one person.
Schedule Input: These folks will be responsible for entering the schedule into the Web site. Will take 2-4 people. This is mainly data entry and will take place in February/March.
