WE NEED YOUR HELP!
PLEASE READ THE INFORMATION ON THIS PAGE THOROUGHLY BEFORE SIGNING UP!
The Goleta Valley South Little League is run entirely by volunteers who work together to make sure Little
League is a great experience for all of the kids. The League appreciates everyone's help and hard work,
and the kids appreciate it even more! There are many ways to contribute, all of which are rewarding and
fun! Parents are encouraged to contact Staff Members with any
questions or comments.
Each family in the League is required to work two volunteer shifts per player to redeem the $200 per
player volunteer deposit required at registration. (Snack shack shift and/or Field work day shift)
There are many volunteer positions requiring a time commitment above and beyond the volunteer shift
required of all parents, including Board Members, Team Managers and Coaches, Team Moms and Dads,
Umpires, etc. If you are interested in one of these positions, please check the appropriate box on your
registration form.
All adults working directly with the kids, including helping on the field at practices and
games, must fill out a Volunteer Application (this is a requirement of Little League
International). Applications can be found on the Little League International website here Mail applications to GVSLL PO Box 660 Goleta CA 93116.
Each team also needs parents to serve as Announcers and Scorekeepers at the games, help with Field
Maintenance before and after games, assist in putting together the team basket for the Silent Auction,
etc. Please help out as requested by your Coaches, Team Mom, and Team Dad.
CONCESSIONS & VOLUNTEERS
GVSLL has a great Concession Stand, with hot food, cold drinks, and lots more, including plenty of
healthy choices. No one is paid to work in the stand; we rely on volunteers to provide this service for
our players and families.
Concession Stand Information
The stand could not run without volunteer help! That’s why you need to show up, and to be there for the
entire shift. If there are no volunteers to run the snack shack, then it can’t open.
- Shifts last approximately 3 hours, or until we close. This includes about 15 minutes of
clean-up after the windows close.
- If you know you cannot make your shift, it is your responsibility to either send someone in your
place or trade for another shift. Try trading with someone on your team, or with someone scheduled
for the same week as your shift (check the sign-up sheet for a list, or contact the Volunteer
coordinator.
- Reliable teenagers (14 years or older) looking to fulfill their school volunteer hours are highly
encouraged to sign up!
- Concession sign-ups are handled online. The calendar is always available (linked from the GVSLL
website) to help you remember your commitment.
- Please remember that if you do not show up to work, there is no one there to do it. We count on the
scheduled people to be there. There is no one there full-time to run it if volunteers do not show.
We don’t want your $200 deposit, we want YOU!
- The snack shack will help raise needed funds for our awesome league with your help!
Sign-ups for Snack Shack/Concession Stand volunteers is available here!
