Coach. Volunteer.
Make a difference.

Every coach, volunteer and official at RVFC helps give children in Walsall the chance to play football — regardless of background or ability. If that sounds like you, we want to hear from you.

More than a club

We're a community, not just a football club. Our coaches and volunteers are central to everything we do.

FA Funded Coaching Courses

We fund UEFA coaching qualifications for committed coaches. You start as a parent who wants to help — we help you become a qualified coach.

Supportive Community

A tight-knit group of families, coaches and volunteers who all pull in the same direction. You will be welcomed from day one.

Flexible Commitment

Most roles are Sunday mornings plus one midweek training session. We work around you — life comes first.

Real Impact

You will watch children grow in confidence, skill and character — and know that you helped make that happen.

Club Development Support

Regular team meetings, shared resources, and a chairman who is always available. You are never left to figure things out alone.

No Child Left Behind

Our ethos is simple — every child gets a fair chance, regardless of what their family can afford. Being part of that matters.

Current Vacancies

All roles are open to anyone who shares our values. No experience necessary — just enthusiasm, reliability, and a genuine care for young people.

No vacancies currently available. Check back soon.

What happens when you apply

We keep things simple. No lengthy application forms — just a conversation to see if it's the right fit.

01

Get in Touch

Email the contact on the role listing. Tell us a bit about yourself and why you're interested. Takes two minutes.

02

Informal Chat

We'll arrange a relaxed conversation — usually over the phone or at a session — to answer your questions and tell you more about the role.

03

Meet the Team

Come along to a training session or matchday as an observer. See how we operate and meet the families and players.

04

DBS & Onboarding

We'll process your DBS check (we cover the cost), complete any required FA paperwork, and get you properly set up.

DBS Checks

All coaches and volunteers working regularly with children must hold a valid enhanced DBS certificate. If you don't have one, we process it for you at no cost.

DBS checks are valid for 3 years and are processed through the FA's Whole Game System. The process is straightforward and we support you through it.

Safeguarding

The safety and wellbeing of our players is the club's first priority, always. All coaches complete FA safeguarding training before working independently with children.

Our Welfare Officer is available to any coach or parent with a concern. RVFC follows all FA safeguarding policies and The Nolan Principles of public life.

Don't see the right role?

We're always open to hearing from people who share our values. If you think you can contribute — whether as a coach, photographer, administrator, or anything else — get in touch and we'll have a conversation.
