Bainbridge Island Little League

Volunteers

Volunteers

BILL is an all-volunteer organization that cannot provide Little League programs to our kids without the generous donation of time and effort from each one of us. Volunteering can be as simple as bringing snacks and refreshments to a game, or as involved as helping coach, umpire, or manage a game. Big or small, there's always something that you can do that will be greatly appreciated by someone.

 

This season we have implemented  Sign Up Genius to help with the many tasks needed to help make your kids season a success.

Please be generous with your time. Remember...it's about the kids!
