Volunteer Duties

Volunteer Information

REMINDER TO PARENTS: Lakehill Ball Park is a volunteer organization and as the old saying goes...it takes a village. If you are not able to help out with game requirements, or during practice we understand. There are so many opportunities around the park there is never a shortage of jobs to go around. Please feel free to contact the Volunteer Coordinator with any questions about where you can help out.

Rake the field before and after the game

The Coach will know where the rakes are for the field if raking the field applies to your team. Get a parent who knows how to rake the field to show the other parents what needs to be done so that everyone can help out.

Line the field

Get the parents who know how to line the fields before the game teach the other parents.

Set up and taking down the bases

The Coach will know where the bases are if this applies to your team.

Scorekeeper

Get the parents who know how to keep score teach the other parents if this applies to your team.

Sweep the dugout’s after the game

Brooms will be located in the dugouts that lock. All other dugouts will have brooms in the equipment rooms. Your coach will have keys to get in. You can empty your dugout garbage cans in the large cans around the park. If you need garbage bags, they are at the clubhouse with cleaning supplies.

Clean Bathrooms

There will be a schedule posted online. Bathroom cleaning will be divided amongst all of the teams and set up on a rotating one-week schedule.

All cleaning supplies/mops/ paper towels and bathroom tissue are located at the clubhouse. You can ask at the concession for access. Once you clean the bathrooms you MUST SIGN THE TRACKING SHEET on the clubhouse door.
