Spring Cup is a completely new and separate season from Fall Core, Extra, and the All-Star Programs. All volunteer positions are needed and volunteers may need to show flexibility in the volunteer positions they will be undertaking. For example, an individual may have been a Coach during the regular season, but will be asked to be a Referee or perform field maintenance during the All Star Season. Parents will confirm their volunteer positions prior to the player's selection to a YDP team.
Coaches, team managers, referees, assistant referees, field maintenance and administrative volunteers are needed. It cannot happen without your help and commitment!
