Q: I would love to volunteer, but I don't have any coaching experience. How can I help?

A:  The Ed Snider Youth Hockey Foundation relies on volunteers to help both on and off the ice.  If you can tie skates, help to buckle a helmet, or even if you can just provide a word or two of encouragement for a first time skater, you can help to make a youngster's day.

Q: My schedule doesn't allow me to commit to a regular practice time. How can I help?

A: The Ed Snider Youth Hockey Foundation has practices both during the day and after school and has expanded to weekend sessions as well.  It's likely there is a time that can suit your schedule.

Even if you can come to only one session this season, please do so, as every additional volunteer we have helps the children get dressed and on to the ice faster so that they can have more fun. 

Q: How do I get more information about volunteering?

A:  For more information about becoming a volunteer, please contact us via email or call 215-952-5271.
