Lafayette Little League

Volunteer Overview


How much time should I expect to give?

We expect every Lafayette Little League family who has not fulfilled their 4-hour volunteer responsibility to find a game to support or pay the $400 buy-out fee. If you have not volunteered for Jamboree (please note that the Saturday rainout does not count), Evals weekends, or the Sixty Seasons of Lafayette weekend, it is likely you are still on the hook for helping. Please note: helping out at Snack Shack over the season only fulfills the team obligation, not the family one.


We have created a Signup Genius link for families to sign up based on the preliminary schedule received from District 4, which oversees our Little League. Our request is that you fill slots for earlier dates if possible, as we put higher priority in making sure that we have volunteer coverage for these games.  In addition, we ask that every volunteer help with cleanup before their shift ends (and please encourage parents and kids participating in the games to bring reusable waters to help reduce the plastic waste!) 


In addition, we will be happy to accept whatever additional time you can provide. Incorporate your family into helping out at the games too, as they will have a chance to watch thrilling baseball games while also meeting other people in the Lamorinda community. Families who are also in the younger baseball divisions will also get to have a first-hand look at how Little League baseball works.


If you have any questions, please email us at [email protected] for more information!
