VOLUNTEER ... JOIN HANDS ... JOIN HEARTS ... JOIN IN !!!
Though our programs are always in need of volunteers, the primary focus is on safety for the kids and all volunteers!
Click on the handout below to pull up a Volunteer Application form - Fill it out and turn it in to your local league along with a photo copy of your government-issued photo i.d. (generally a drivers license). In Little League, we are required to run and review background and sex offender registry checks before approving volunteers for regular contact with the kids.
Additionally, the leagues run the same checks on a wider volunteer pool - including board members and folks who may be handling finances. Little League International has a great partnership with ChoicePoint/LexusNexis - a nationwide data base - which means each chartered league or district can run 125 FREE background checks per year, and are then charged only $1 per check above the 125!
