  3. Background Checks Volunteers / Staff A volunteer is anyone participating with a club/league and has, or may have contact with players or serves as a club official and/or staff. • This includes ALL administrators, board members, coaches and assistant coaches, managers or team officials, referees, and even concession stand workers or others who interact with players. • All volunteers are required to have a Gotsoccer profile. This is where the volunteer submits the volunteer disclosure form. Every volunteer must have a current and approved background check. • Background checks must be done yearly and expire on June 30th, regardless of when they are submitted. Please only submit once a seasonal year unless something has changed! • Background checks must be submitted by the volunteer, not the club! • Volunteers must disclose all charges – dismissed, expunged, sealed, vacated, etc..
