All parents of children involved in Little League Baseball and Softball are strongly encouraged to volunteer. As a parent, volunteer, you have the opportunity to spend quality time with your child in a safe, fun-filled environment. Floral Park Little League offers two volunteer roles; Team Manager and Assistant Coach.
Team Managers serves as the point person for the team. They are responsible for communicating with the league and parents, organizing practices, setting lineups, etc. Assistant coaches serve as the support system for the team manager, often as a base coach or filling in when the team manager is not available.
If you would like to volunteer you must complete the volunteer application form on our website. The form can be found on our website, www.floralparklittleleague.com, under the Registration Info --> Volunteer heading. Please be sure to complete the form for each division in which you wish to volunteer (i.e. you have multiple children in multiple divisions). This form must be completed each year and is the first step in being selected as a manager or coach.
When completing the form, it is best to use a desktop or tablet instead of your phone. All required fields must be completed and if a text box does not apply to you, you must enter “n/a” in the field. A photo of your government ID is also required to be uploaded.
Please note that submission of this form is not a guarantee that you will be selected as a manager or coach. We receive over a hundred submissions each year and the number of volunteers is dependent upon league enrollment.
In the event you are selected, a member of the Board of Directors will reach out to you to complete a formal Little League background check and obtain any additional information that is needed. This background check must be completed and approved each year for all selected managers and their assistants. The background check must be completed prior to team selections. Once the background screening is complete and approved, you will receive an FPLL ID card.
