Eastview Little League is a volunteer driven organization that relies on parent contribution and support. All parents are expected to participate throughout the season.
2024 Spring Ball Season
All parents are expected to work snack bar shifts, as listed below, per registered player. The established schedules will vary per season, as decided by the board, and made available prior to the start of each season.
Upon completion of the final game schedule, the snack bar shifts will be added to SignUpGenius and will be accessible utilizing the link below.

Volunteer Deposit (Snack Bar Obligation)
Each family will be required to volunteer in the Snack Bar in order to assist Eastview Little League with the operations of the Snack Bar. Each family will be obligated to provide a check/cash payment as a deposit for their commitment to volunteer during the season. The amount and days required to volunteer will be determined each season by the Board of Directors.
For the 2024 Spring Season, each family will be required to provide a Volunteer Deposit in the amount of $150.00 per child (up to 3 children) at evaluations. Should you choose to volunteer, the following requirement must be met in order to be refunded your payment:
1 Child = 2 shifts
2 Children = 3 Shifts
3 Children = 4 Shifts
Shift times and dates will be determined once a final game schedule is available.
Team Responsibilities
Home Team
SCOREKEEPERS
Rookie, Minor, Major, and Jr Divisions must provide the official scorekeeper for each game. Official scorebooks will be located in snack-shack as well as electronic score pads for the scoreboards. All scorekeepers must be in the scorekeeper's area directly behind the Umpire each game. Scorekeepers must track pitch counts for the game. Scorekeepers are not allowed to keep score in the stands or dugouts. Both Managers are required to sign the scorebook at the end of the game. The scorebook will be considered official when returned to the snack shack. No corrections or additions will be allowed once the scorebook is official. The scorebook and score pads shall be returned to their proper place after each game. (See Pitching Rules)
Illegible Scorebook - A scorebook will be considered illegible if the League Scorekeeper is unable to determine the final score of the game. If the scorebook is determined to be illegible by the League Scorekeeper the Scorekeeper will notify the League President. The League President will then present the scorebook to the Eastview Board of Directors. If the Board of Directors finds the book illegible the home team will receive a forfeit for the game in question.
SCOREBOARD OPERATOR
Rookie, Minor, and Major teams must provide an adult volunteer to operate the scoreboard at Field’s 1 and 2. This volunteer can be the scorekeeper, if willing and able to do both.

Team Parent will be responsible for ensuring that the 50/50 raffle is done once per game. Raffle tickets and instructions will be obtained at the snack-shack. Team Parent and Manager, please make sure this gets done!

DRAGGING THE FIELD (Pre-Game)
Prepare field for play: open all gates, put out bases and batting helmets. Groom field if needed. NOTE: ALWAYS CLEAN OUT THE ANCHOR/SLEEVE THAT THE MAGNET IS INSERTED IN. NEVER FORCE AN ANCHOR/MAGNET BY FORCE. IF YOU ARE FOUND TO HAVE DONE THIS, AND ANY PART OF THE BASE SET IS DAMAGED, IT CAN COST THE LEAGUE A SUBSTANTIAL COST TO FULLY INSTALL AND REPLACE A NEW SET.
DRAGGING THE FIELD (Post-Game)
After the game: drag field, groom mound and around home plate. When dragging the field, try to keep brick dust off grass and try not to tear up the edge of grass with a dragger. NOTE: ALWAYS REPLACE THE PLUGS FOR THE BASES WHEN FINISHING THE FIELD CLEAN UP. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT AND SHOULD BE FOLLOWED. IF YOU CANNOT FIND THREE PLUGS, PLEASE INFORM A BOARD MEMBER OR THE SNACK SHACK ATTENDANT.
EQUIPMENT
Put away bases and any other equipment used.
TRASH DUTY
Clean dugout and pick-up trash under and around stands on your side of the field. Make sure the equipment gate is completely locked up.
