Volunteers and Board members needed

Our league is possible because of volunteers. Due to a transition of a number of key volunteers, we are in need of some new members, especially those with young players in our league. Besides coaching and umpiring, there are a number of Board positions open. Keep in mind there is a job for everyone no matter how much you know about baseball or softball. Our community needs you so that we can offer baseball and softball to 350 kids in our area. Please contact League President Steve Hawes at (206) 789-1411 if you are interested in coaching, being an umpire, helping out at the Spaghetti Feed or League Picnic, or joining the board.

Safety Officer: Determine league safety policies and assist in education of coaches and other league officials.

Umpire In Chief: Organization and planning of umpires for NWLL.

All Star Coordinator: Coordinate selection of coaches and players for Allstar teams.
