TEAM PARENTS,  

We know the role of Team Parent is certainly an important one. You are the link between the league administrators and the parents of the players on your team. Being a team parent means you will get to be a part of your child's team. Even better -- your child will get to see a real role model in action.

For those of you who have done this in the past, the following guide will give you reminders of some of the duties we’re asking for help with. If you’re new at it, then the information here will help you become an excellent Team Parent. It does take some work, but this is a volunteer league, so don’t be afraid to ask the other parents for help. We’re all here to promote good sportsmanship, enjoy our kids’ games and have fun!

All team parents will be notified via email of any league happenings. It is each team parent’s responsibility to get this information to the parents of your players. Below is an outline of the duties of a team parent:

BELL is a 100% volunteer organization.  We need all the help we can get.  Encourage your families to get involved and explain to them why things work the way they do.

General responsibilities of the team parent:

Do everything off the field for the team so that the managers and coaches can concentrate on everything on the field for the team. Be the liaison between the league and your team. Distribute all information you receive from us in a timely manner. Sometimes the coach may have a coaching conflict. They may need you or another parent to help practice with the team or help out in the dugout especially in T ball and minors.

With today's technology, staying connected with team information is easier than ever. Using various Apps like Gamechanger and Flickr. You can upload and share your Team's Photo's, Game schedule, Snack schedule, AND you can post pictures of the game to share and relive the moments.

Specific areas of attention during the season
Help with uniforms – Organize socks and belt colors. Help distribute the uniforms. Decide if the team wants names on the back of the jerseys and take care of collecting the money and getting it done. (This is optional but the entire team must participate.)

Help your team get to know each other. - Create rosters with parents’ names and players’ jersey numbers so everyone can cheer for the kids. Get cell phone number and email addresses for parents so you can notify them of important last minute changes in the schedule. They will thank you!

Specific areas of attention during games

Snacks.The team parent can take the responsibility of handling snack at each game after collecting money from the families at the beginning of the season or you can assign a different parent to each game. It is your choice--- Parents can order from the concession stand or bring their own snacks. It is a good idea to find out if any children on the team have any food allergies. Remember safety first. 

Trash Duty. All of us are responsible for keeping the BELL fields and our sister league's fields clean.

End of season
Coaches’ gifts. Gifts for managers and coaches is optional. Talk to your parents and organize what they decide they want to do. Party. An end-of-season party is optional but is always fun. Work with your manager to plan what is appropriate for your team.
