Previous volunteers have used the experience gained in this role to move into full-time careers involved in sport, while others are involved simply because of their love of the game, their team and want the chance to share it with others.
Please Note: This is a voluntary position - not for RamsTV - and you will not become an employee of Derby County or Alan March Sport. All volunteers must be over the age of 16 on the date of the training day and Alan March Sport reserves the right to close applications early if oversubscribed.
