The NCBSA is an all volunteer organization. The members of the Board of Directors are parents who have volunteered to put substantial amounts of our time into running a baseball and softball program for our community. However, in order for that program to run effectively, it needs lots of assistance from parents. There are all kinds of jobs that need to be done. Everyone can and should help out in some, even modest, way.  Many thanks to all of the parents who have already volunteered to help out.

    The position and philosophy of Little League® Baseball on this subject is clear:

    "Parents must take the initiative to make the local program successful. Little League is not a club in which membership implies baby-sitting benefits and entertainment privileges. Practically speaking, Little League is an adult, volunteer work project constructed, supervised and assisted by parents who want to extend this benefit to their children. The parent who shirks this responsibility cannot, in turn, expect others to assume the burden."

    Your Board of Directors fully realizes that, as parents, we all have very busy schedules. But it has been our experience over a period of several years that the league has simply grown beyond the size that can be readily handled without contributions from everyone. We’re not asking for tremendous amounts of time, just a few hours over the course of the year to help contribute to a special program from which your children derive all kinds of benefits.

Here is a list of the many jobs parents can volunteer for:

1. HEAD COACHES - VERY IMPORTANT - ALWAYS A SHORTAGE

2. ASSISTANT COACHES
