Gig Harbor Little League is now accepting applications for Team Managers and Assistant Coaches for Teeball, Baseball and Softball and we look forward to receiving yours! Every year we have an outstanding group of volunteers but we can never have too much help. If you've thought about managing or coaching but aren't sure, rest assured that Little League International and Gig Harbor Little League have tremendous resources for running practices, understanding the rules, and making the season a great success. 

In addition to filling out the application, all GHLL volunteers must undergo a background check. 

In order to become a volunteer, you must first become a member of Gig Harbor Little League by paying the $10.00 annual fee (which can be paid with your child’s registration fees.)

If you did not pay the fee during the registration process, after you have signed up to volunteer, the $10 fee will be added to your account and you can simply log into your account and pay the fee online. NOTE - your background check will not be run until you have paid the $10 fee. 

To apply as a GHLL Team Manager or Assistant Coach: 
STEP 1:
You must first sign up for a Volunteer Role in our system to start the application and background check process. Please log in to your account on gigharborlittleleague.org and click on the Volunteer tab >> and then click on Find Volunteer Roles. 

IMPORTANT: If you do not already have an account in our system, but the other parent does, please have them add you as an additional user on their account so you are linked to your player(s).  If you create your own account, we will not be able to link you to your player’s account. 

When you are selecting a Volunteer Role, choose the role you're applying for (either Manager or Coach) and then you will be asked to answer some GHLL specific questions as part of the process, as well as answering questions to start the Little League background check process.  *You will need to upload a copy/picture of your driver's license as part of the process, so please have that ready to go. 

Once you have completed signing up as a volunteer, the role will display in your account like the image below:

STEP 2:

Once you've completed Step 1, you will receive two emails - one from GHLL confirming that you have signed up to volunteer, and more importantly, an email within 24-48 hours from "Gig Harbor American" containing a link to complete the application online. It should look like this:

Hello GHLL VOLUNTEER,
