When you plan club you have to pick a day to start. For most areas this is the day or week following leader weekend. However, how about starting club once your team does a certain amount of contact work.
For example, how about starting club once your team has been on campus a combined 50 times. If you have 5 leaders that means everyone can go 10 times each or if you have a few super leaders some people might not go as much. You can pick the number for yourself.
This is one area of ministry that I would make goals team oriented versus individual oriented. It is always more fun do do contact work with other people plus your team can help hold you to a higher standard. Team goals are more public (everyone knows what they are) and are also individually flexible. After all, some people are more available then others. Some people even like going to campus more then others. Now they can be the leaders of this aspect of your team.
Finally, and most importantly, this would set a standard for how your club will do contact work all year long. By starting off the year having contact work be the standard of what your club looks like then you cant miss. No matter how well club goes, you know your team is doing the dirty work of Young Life.
Finally you can sit back and let God do his part.
