Why Volunteer?
Ladera Little League is a non-profit organization and is 100% volunteer run. There are no paid employees on the board or otherwise. All parents of children involved in Little League Baseball and Softball are strongly encouraged to volunteer. Members of the Board of Directors have children and full-time jobs that demand our time, so we certainly understand the extra effort that it requires for other volunteers to show up and volunteer with the league. We do not take your contribution lightly and we really couldn't do it without you.
As a parent volunteer, you have the opportunity to spend quality time with your child in a safe, fun-filled environment. Oftentimes, parent and child social lives parallel each other. Volunteering allows your life and your child's life to intersect on common ground, with shared interests and goals.
Who Can Volunteer?
Anyone can apply to become a volunteer. Whatever talents or skills you have, we can use them! Across the country, volunteers are grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles, retirees, community leaders, former Little Leaguers, friends, neighbors, and more. Any community member who wishes to become a volunteer may apply.
What Can I Volunteer To Do?
No experience is required to become a volunteer. Most of the volunteer opportunities require little or no training. Ladera LL will provide you with any necessary training (as well as support and encouragement). The best volunteers are those who are able to bring added enjoyment to the game simply be being themselves. What you see during Little League games is a mere fraction of what you can do as a volunteer.
