Volunteer Requirements
DAYHA and the Delano Area Sports Arena (DASA) are both non-profit, volunteer run organizations. The success of both organizations is critical to provide a viable youth hockey program in the Delano & Rockford school districts. Neither organization can function without your volunteer help!
In some instances there are specific opportunities to assist which may line up directly with your specific skill set. Please reach out to the volunteer coordinator to learn of such opportunities which may go above and beyond the minimum requirements.
Volunteer Hour Requirements: (Note: volunteer hours are subject to change and if so, communication to the Association will be provided.)
- Per family volunteer commitment:
- $1500 post dated check (February 1, 2025); and
- 15 hours volunteer time
- Intro/Termite/Jr Gold ONLY - no deposit or hours needed
ALL FAMILIES MUST SEND VOLUNTEER CHECK–NO EXCEPTIONS. Jersey distribution will be withheld if check is not received.
Deposit checks will not be cashed prior to the end of the season, unless a family elects to make a cash contribution in lieu of volunteer hours. At the conclusion of the season, deposit checks will be destroyed if volunteer hour requirements have been met, checks will be cashed if volunteer requirements have not been met. NO partial refunds.
Many opportunities will be communicated throughout the season. Frequently check the Volunteer page on datigers.com.
Running the clock, announcing, or monitoring a penalty box (minor officials) at home league games or scrimmages do not count towards volunteer hours.
If you have a special circumstance which will prevent you from completing your hours, you must make a special request with the volunteer coordinator who will seek approval from the DAYHA board. This request should be made as soon as you become aware of the circumstance. Requests after February 1, 2025, will not be granted.
When sending your volunteer check, please include your player's name and the level of play. Please send your volunteer checks (POSTDATED TO FEBRUARY 1, 2025) to:
