GUIDELINES FOR VOLUNTEER BOND
Newton Canadian baseball needs you! With the amount of work to be done during the season, we could not do it without the parents’ efforts and their volunteer time!
We wanted to provide some information regarding volunteer bond responsibilities/requirements:
- The volunteer bond requirement is for everyone, including coordinators.
- Each player’s parent or caregiver must meet a volunteer bond requirement of 2 shifts, per family registered, per season. Spring will consist of 1 regular season shift plus 1 tournament shift. (If applicable summer will be 1 shift)
- These 2 shifts are specific to concession volunteering and tournament table volunteering during tournaments. Volunteer bond shifts are 4 hours long.
- At the start of the season, you will be required to pay a $150 bond during registration. Once the requirement has been fulfilled and confirmed you will receive a refund of the bond amount at the end of the season.
- You will also have the option to pay $250 at the time of registration to opt out of volunteering all together. This will help cover cost to fill vacant positions. You will still be required to perform team duties – prepping the field, scorekeeping, etc.
Note: The reason that the volunteer bond shifts are typically specific to concession is so that we can operate our concession and bathrooms for players and families in the park during games and tournaments! You will be working with a concession crew chief during these shifts. Please see information about what duties will or may be required of you during these shifts on our website in the ‘About Us’ sections under ‘Concession’.
Some guidelines for volunteering:
- Once you claim a shift, you cannot cancel it within 7 days of the scheduled shift.
- If you have an emergency and need to cancel within 7 days of your scheduled shift we need for you to find a replacement. We need to have a person there for the shift.
- Volunteers must be 16 or older.
We would like to remind you that we are only as successful as our volunteers! Thank you for everything you do!
If you have any questions, please send email to our Volunteer coordinator at dibs@newtonbaseball.com and we will get back to you as soon as we can.
GUIDELINES FOR VOLUNTEERING
(SEPARATE FROM THE BOND)
Newton Canadian baseball is 100% volunteer based! Executives, coordinators, coaches and all positions within the association are all volunteers!
Team Duties: During the season there are some team duties. This includes team based efforts such as field prep, scorekeeping, team parent etc.
Other volunteer opportunities: There are so many ways to volunteer with NCBA. Official positions are filled yearly or bi-yearly during our AGM and thereafter if positions remain unfilled.
Some more examples of how you can support NCBA through volunteering: Coaching, park clean up, fundraising with our sponsorship coordinator, helping with Association events and so much more!
