Manager
The manager of a team is ultimately responsible for the team. The manager drafts the team (in tryout divisions, schedules and plans the practices, organizes team volunteers (coaches, team parents, scorekeeper, etc.), coaches the team, and is the primary contact between the league and the team.
Coach
A coach helps the manager coach the team and performs any other duties assigned by the manager. A manager can recruit as many coaches as needed but there may only be two coaches with the manager in the dugout during a game.
Team Parent
A team parent is someone who wants to help out with the team any way he/she can. They may help out during practices, coordinate snack schedules for the team, coordinate the schedule for team duty to work in the Snack Shack (Concessions stand)communicate information from the manager to the team families, or whatever administrative duties they can to help the manager/coaches. The team parent also coordinates any team banners, and team end-of-season parties. Because the team parent interacts with the players, a volunteer application needs to be completed so a background check can be done. There is a team parent meeting at the start of the season to give you information for performing your duties. Please check the calendar for dates.
Snack Shack
Because we are an entirely volunteer organization, we have to utilize team families to run the Snack Shack. Each team is given 2-3 time slots during the season to cover the Snack Shack operations. Someone working in the Snack Shack will have duties such as cashiering, filling team meal orders, making hotdogs, nachos, etc. A typical shift would be 2 1/2 - 3 hours per assignment. The team parent is usually responsible for assigning team families to help out on these shifts. If these shifts aren't covered by your team families, your manager and coaches will be pulled off the field to work in the Snack Shack and your child's team will not be able to play their game.
Field Workdays
The first one or two Saturdays before the season starts are typically field cleanup days. CTVLL invites all players and their families to come and spruce up their fields and the grounds to get them ready for the opener. We also encourage managers to build team unity by bringing their whole team to work together.
