What is Team 710?
The role of Team 710 is to be a resource to Paladin Sports Outreach and help us fulfill our mission and vision of sharing the message of Jesus Christ by representing this organization through volunteer time, advice, feedback, input and ultimately helping us in areas of expertise that you may have.
The term “Team 710” was coined from our organization verse which is Psalm 7:10: My shield is God Most High, and he saves the upright in heart.
We value your time and understand life is very busy. We know that volunteering is important to you, but you also don’t want it to feel like a chore or a just another task you have to do. Instead, you will be added to our Team 710 database and when we need help with upcoming programs, events and activities we will reach out and if you can help then help! If you can’t, that’s ok too! When we are trying to grow, implement new programs, or just need your advice and resources then we will reach out, and if you can help we would love to have you.
We have a very simple qualification for all Team 710 members. You must be a committed follower of Jesus Christ and willing to sign our statement of faith, as all our board members do.
As a member of Team 710 you would work closely with our board of directors, executive director and our programs coordinators.
