 VOLUNTEER FAQ


VOLUNTEERS

We always need volunteers to run the league whether it's a coach, team parent coordinator, snack bar volunteer or board member. So don't hesitate to sign up and help out. 


 

VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENT

Q: As a Volunteer do I need a background check?
A: Yes.  Effective with the 2021 Little League season, Regulation 1 (c) 9 requires all volunteers with regular, repetitive access to players to be background checked.

Q: If I pass my background check, do I still need to take the Abuse Awareness Training for Adults?
A: Yes.  Abuse Awareness Training for Adults" is now a required part of the annual Little League Volunteer Application, alongside the annual background check. The training must be completed before any individual can assume any duties for the current season.


HOW TO VOLUNTEER

Q: How do I volunteer?
A: All volunteers (except youth volunteers) are required to register and complete a background check.

Step 1: Register as a volunteer. (Click Here
Step 2: Select the volunteer type. 

Your volunteer preference will be added into our system. A board member will reach out to interested managers and coaches. Managers will select their assistant coaches, team parent volunteer and scorekeepers/pitch counters after the draft. If selected as a team volunteer, your position will be adjusted accordingly in our system and background check requested. When your background check is cleared you will receive a volunteer badge that you will be required to wear when you are on the field.
Umpires will work with UIC. Snack Bar volunteers will work with volunteer coordinator.

Q: I want to volunteer as a scorekeeper/pitch counter but I don't know how to score keep or pitch count?
A: In the spring we will host a Scorekeeping Clinic, date and time TBD. It will teach you all the basics you need in order to be a scorekeeper. For each competitive division game the home team is required to provide the scorekeeper and the visiting team is required to provide the pitch counter. Your team manager or team parent volunteer will sign off on your volunteer hours.

Q: I want to volunteer to be an Umpire. How do I become an Umpire? And do I need my own Umpire gear?
A: In order to be an umpire you will be required to attend the spring Umpire Clinic, date and time TBD. Upon successful completion of the clinic and background check you will work with UIC for scheduling. UIC will sign off on your volunteer hours based on games umped. TVLL will provide protective gear and polo shirt for each ump. Umpires will need to provide their own dark grey, blue or black pants. 

Q: How do I join the TVLL Board of Directors?
A: First check if there are any board openings and read the description of responsibilities: Click Here. Attend a board meeting, explain why you are interested in the position and why you are a good fit for that position. The current board will conduct a blind vote to vote-in potential candidates.

Q: Do I need to be a parent of a player in order to volunteer?
A: No. We welcome any and all volunteers. If you love baseball and want to give back to the community please consider volunteering. We just require volunteer registration and background check. 

Q: I am in high school and need service hours for my club. Can I volunteer?
A: Yes. We always need Snack Bar Volunteers. Please contact our volunteer coordinator for scheduling. Youth volunteers are not subject to the background check requirement.
