Volunteering at Crusaders
Our club is run entirely by volunteers and by registering yourself, or a member of your family, you are joining our group of dedicated people who take pride in the quality of our clubhouse, our grounds, our programs.
Volunteering at Cru:
- The club operates a Volunteer Bond program to encourage members to support the club. Every registered player/family is asked to contribute.
- High School Volunteer hours can be earned my club members or members of the general public.
Volunteer Bonds – Quick Guide
- If you paid a bond, you will be able to volunteer your hours through CruHQ, our club/team management web app. There you will be able to find opportunities and shifts to sign up to, log “Anytime” hours and see the status of your bond.
- How it works:
- Every registered player pays a refundable volunteer bond that can be earned back through volunteer hours, either hours earned by the player or their family.
- Once you volunteer, your claimed/tracked hours are approved and you achieve the required number of hours, your bond will be eligible for refund. Refunds are processed at least once a month.
- The volunteering period is May 1 – April 30 each year, so you have that entire period to earn your hours.
- No Show Policy: if you don’t show for a shift that you’ve booked, an extra hour will be added to your required volunteer hours.
- More details are available in our Volunteer Bond and Service Commitment Policy
High School Volunteer Hours – Quick Guide
Whether you’re a club member, a family member or someone within the broader community, earning eligible high school volunteer hours is easy! Note: if you’re a player or club member, earned high school volunteer hours do not count towards your/your family’s volunteer bond hours.
There are lots of opportunities for high school students: projects, events, volunteer camp counsellors and much more – it’s easy to earn ALL your required hours at Cru!
- Use the CruHQ Volunteer Portal: https://cruhq.crusadersrugby.club/volunteers to register or signup.
- If you already have a CruHQ login, you can use that.
- Note: the hours you log as a high-school student this way DO NOT count towards your bond. If you want to work off bond hours, you can do that in the Volunteers sections in CruHQ itself.
- Once your registration/application is approved, you’ll be able to:
- signup to shifts
- see your past shifts
- see your total hours
- download volunteer certificates/letters for your high school
