At Mother Lode Rugby, volunteering is how we keep the club strong. It’s more than just helping out – it’s part of our culture.

From setting up fields to preparing the post-match meals we share with visiting teams, parent support builds camaraderie, strengthens community, and ensures every player has a safe and fun experience.

During the winter season, each family is required to provide a $150 refundable deposit, which will be returned upon completion of 3 volunteer hours. For more information on volunteer requirements click here
