Stuart Pearce hails online volunteer portal for non-league clubs

Stuart Pearce hails the Pitching In Volunteer Hub as a new innovative online portal for non-league clubs. The Hub has already filled over 60 roles across the Northern Premier, Southern and Isthmian Leagues. It is part of Entain's multi-million-pound investment programme into grassroots sport. Former England captain Pearce is an ambassador of the Hub. Marske United have filled six vacancies through the platform. Bob Ryan, stadium manager at Marskes United, also praises the website. He believes football clubs won't survive without volunteers. They can do everything from working on the turnstiles to helping in the bar.
