Redesigning Volunteer Roles within Community Sport Clubs: Development of a Role Co-Crafting Plan for Volunteer Engagement and Club/Community Capacity
The project aims to address challenges faced by community sports clubs in attracting and retaining volunteers. With a focus on the job crafting approach, the research team plans to explore how volunteers informally reshape their roles based on personal interests and motivations. Recognizing the significance of volunteerism in the Australian sport system, the project aligns with the Australian Sports Commission's vision for the future of sport volunteering, emphasizing meaningful and mutually rewarding experiences for volunteers. The researchers aim to develop a Role Co-Crafting Plan that incorporates volunteers' informal practices, club expectations, and community goals, ultimately enhancing volunteer engagement and addressing turnover issues within community sports clubs.
