As a volunteer, you should be interested in the safety, well-being and overall development of our youth. We need volunteers of all skill-sets and experience. If you are a parent of a player, you are strongly encouraged to volunteer.

See below for all the different types of volunteer opportunities at NWLL. If you are interested in volunteering for any of these roles, please fill out our Volunteer Form here. You can also let your coach know if you are interested in being the Team Parent.

Umpires please learn more/register via the Umpires Tab

Concessions

All Teams must have volunteers to run concessions when they are the HOME team. All concession volunteers must be age 14+. Duties would include not only selling but restocking and making sure the concessions buildings are picked up. Concessions are located at field 1, field 2 & between fields 3 & 4 (Sugar Shack).

Merchandise

Please sign up to sell merch. We can’t open the shop without you. The shop should be open before/during games and during special events. A shift sign-up will be sent out once the game schedule is finalized and posted.

Announcer/Scoreboard (Instructions in the pressbox above concessions on Field 1 & 2)

Each team is required to provide an announcer during games when they are the VISITING team. The announcer introduces players, leads the teams in the national anthem, and announces players from both teams during games. The announcer may also operate the scoreboard or work with another volunteer in the press box. 

Game Changer App (All Teams will be using this App)

1. Download the Game Changer App, which is used to manage game schedules, track stats, keep score, communicate within the team, etc. Note, there are only 4 “staff member” spots  available per team.

2. Send an introductory email to parents inviting them to the Team on Game Changer.

3. QR Codes for GameChanger will be posted at Field 1 & Field 2

Special Events

• Assisting with specialty vendors, food trucks, bounce houses, etc.
• Assisting with set up/tear down (signage, tables, flyers, etc)

Please remember our NWLL Zero Tolerance Policies: Verbal abuse in any form of umpires, league officials, coaches, players or spectators is prohibited. Respect for and adherence to all league rules, policies, and guidelines is expected. This is a recreational league, and one of our goals is to cultivate the love of the game.
