We serve food, drink and snack options for families, visiting teams, and our area community.  In return, concessions generate a significant source of cashflow/revenue for our league (as a 501c (3) non-profit) to supports our operating expenses, investment initiatives, and helps keep registration cost low/reasonable for our community. 

Concessions staffing:
Concession staffing occurs through a scheduled rotation during the season involving all of our teams.  Staffing is lead/guided by a member of the concessions committee.  Each team's coaching staff (Head Coach, Assistant Coach, or Team Helper) provides 3 volunteers (or 6 for split time) to the concessions committee no later than 3 days before their teams scheduled staffing obligation.  If a team is unable to obtain the 3 volunteers for their staffing obligation, the concessions staffing obligation will default to the coaches/team helpers.  And yes, that would result in the game being cancelled/forfeited.  Please be joyful and generous when your coaches/team helpers ask for volunteers and always remember- Schoolcraft LL is run and operated by 100% volunteers. 

The duration is 5:00p to 8:00p (or 5:00 to 6:30 & 6:30 to 8:00p for split time) for concession staffing volunteers.  Ultimately, 3 volunteers shall be present at all times.  

Are you a "whistle while you work" kind of person?  If so, feel free to bring a portable jukebox and 'let the good times roll'...  (family/child appropriate music, aka no profanity/vulgarity)
