Become a VLL Volunteer

Vista Little League is always looking for responsible and enthusiastic individuals to support and coordinate local Little League events and activities. Volunteers should have a keen interest in the safety, well-being, and overall development of children.

On rare occasions, Vista Little League, through District Administrators and local Board of Directors, may deny individuals the privilege of volunteering for reasons, past or present, which may be detrimental to the positive development of young people, other volunteers, and/or Little League International. When applying to become a volunteer, individuals give the local Little League organization permission to conduct all necessary background checks.

Annual background checks are required for all Managers, Coaches, Umpires, Team Parents, and general Volunteers. Additionally, all Managers, Coaches, and Umpires are required to complete a live scan.

No experience is required to become a volunteer. Most of the volunteer opportunities require little or no training. VLL will provide any necessary training (as well as support and encouragement), and Little League University is the go-to resource for everything a volunteer needs to know. The best volunteers are those who are able to bring added enjoyment to the game simply be being themselves.
If you are new to baseball and would like to volunteer, here is a great resource to teach you all about the game! https://grillio.com/blog/kids-baseball-guide/

Below is information and links to trainings, forms, and criteria for our Volunteers.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email [email protected].

Team Parent Info

So Now You’re the Team Parent!

First of all, THANK YOU for volunteering to be a Team Parent! You are an integral part of the team and an immeasurable help to the manager and coaches! Your help will allow the managers and coaches to focus their time and energy on the kids and not take time away from practices and games for administrative tasks.

Key Information for Team Parents:

Forms:

Link to Registration Packet (Medical Release Form, Concussion Form, Code of Conduct)

Uniforms:

VLL provides your player with a team hat and jersey.

Jerseys will need the players last name printed on the back (Spring Required/Fall Optional).
Upper divisions players will also choose their own numbers 00-99 (Spring Only)
Lower division jerseys have numbers pre-printed (1-12)

Click HERE for our template to send with the jerseys for printing.
Note: there are the same teams across multiple divisions, so please include your Division in addition to your team name.

Each player will also need to purchase their own pants, a belt and socks to match the uniform. The manager advises which color pants, belts and socks. Cups are mandatory for all players except for T-Ball (and girls).

Pitch Count / Scorekeepers (AAA and above - required for each game (Spring Only)):

Home Team Provides Scorekeeper - ($20 to hire an approved scorekeeper)
Away Team Provides Pitchcounter - ($15 to hire an approved scorekeeper)

Additional Tips:

Team Meeting: we recommend setting up a brief in person meeting with the parents to discuss your role with the team and to make sure everyone is on the same page in regards to team/league information and expectations for this season. It would also be a good time to discuss immediate events and assign duties such as game snack schedule, confirm spelling of names for shirts, pass out hats, etc., and a good opportunity to pass out medical releases and concussion forms.

Coach Gifts and End of Year Party: Neither of these is a requirement, but usually the parents want to give the Manager and Coach(es) a thank you gift and have a little end-of-season-party. This is completely voluntary and something you can discuss with your team before deciding.

Be In The Know: sign up for VLL website emails, and like us on Facebook and Instagram (Vista Little League) for communications, updates and all things going on in the league.
