FAMILY MAX PAYMENT

SLL utilizes a family maximum payment of $315 for larger families registering multiple players. In order for the registration system to recognize that your family is registering multiple players, please register all of your players at one time.

VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENT

In 2024 we are mandating Volunteer hours as it has been the standard practice of SLL prior to the COVID shutdown. We have deemed this necessary in order to better serve our community by providing children with the opportunity to play the sport we all love. Each family participating in SLL Baseball will be required to volunteer two (2) hours per child with a maximum of four (4) hours per family. We will not be implementing a volunteer deposit at this time, but we will ask families to record their hours using our downloadable form for tracking/verifying volunteer hours. Click HERE to download the 2024 Service Record Form and be sure to submit via email before July 1, 2024 to avoid a possible Non-Volunteer Fee.

NOTE: See HERE for information regarding MANDATORY ABUSE AWARENESS TRAINING for all volunteers. It is recommended to take the FREE online training course to earn your Certification of Completion BEFORE registering as a volunteer. This way you will have your Certificate downloaded and upload a picture of your Certificate as part of the Volunteer Application process.

Volunteer opportunities include Board service, helping coordinate activities like scheduling, photographs or the Opening Day parade, Field Days and our Concession Stand to name just a few. Training will be provided for all positions.

Having our Concession Stand open during the season means more money for the League to help purchase necessary items as well as keeping registration costs down for families. Without volunteers, the concession stand cannot operate.

For Concessions, just as in previous years, each team will be assigned either a Monday-Friday block of time or a full Saturday block of time. Managers and Team Parents should work together to coordinate a sign-up list based on the dates and times. Shifts in the concession stand are typically 90 minutes and 2-3 people are needed for each shift. Concession stand volunteer hours count toward the required volunteer hours for the League.

For example, the Intermediate Rangers are assigned a Monday-Friday block. Their sign up for shifts would look like this (the following names are for example only):

Monday

Tuesday

Saturday shifts typically begin at 8am and end around 4pm. Blocks will be assigned once the League knows how many teams we have this year.

Having our concession stand open during the season means additional funds for the League to help purchase necessary items, and it also contributes to keeping the registration costs down for families. Without volunteers, the concession stand cannot operate.

REFUND POLICY

The registration fee is a donation towards the operation of SLL. The following is the official league policy regarding the refunding of the registration fee. All other funds collected from fundraisers, sponsorships, donations, etc. are not refundable.

The amount of the refund will be processed as follows:

Prior to the beginning of the regular playing season and before the uniform is ordered, 50% of the full registration fee will be refunded.
After uniforms have been ordered there will be no refund.

*A refund will not be provided to a player opting to withdraw from league due to not being drafted into the Majors division*

To receive a refund, the parent/guardian of a player must submit a formal request via email to the league requesting a refund and stating the reason why the player is resigning from the league.

No refund will be processed without a formal email request

All refunds will be processed once registration for the current season closes. Refunds will be made via league issued check and mailed to the registered address on file.

FORMS

As part of our registration process, the following FORMS will be required:

MEDICAL RELEASE: All participants will need a signed medical release on file in order to play. This must be provided to your team manager at the first practice/meeting. An acknowledgement to submit a completed copy is required during online registration; a hyperlink will be available.
HEADS UP CONCUSSION: This form is required to be acknowledged as part of the online registration process.
SPORT PARENT CODE OF CONDUCT: This form is required to be acknowledged as part of the online registration process.
IMAGE RELEASE WAIVER: This form is required to be acknowledged as part of the online registration process.
VOLUNTEER APPLICATON / BACKGROUND CHECKS: All volunteers will need to submit the volunteer application as part of the registration process. Select your volunteer role under the “Team Staff” section and follow the prompts. If you bypass this section, you may sign back into your account and click the “Volunteer” quick link. Background checks must be submitted online, and a link will then be sent to you from JD Palatine, Little League's background servicer once your Volunteer Application has been reviewed by an SLL Official and background check order submitted to JDP.
