Benicia Fastpitch runs on volunteers!

Wether you like to be behind the scenes or in the middle of the action, we could always use your help.
Available volunteer opportunities may vary but we can always use your help throughout the season.

If you are interested in becoming a manager,  please fill out our volunteer opportunities form. Managers and coaches will be selected by the Benicia Fastpitch executive board and notifications will be made in January.  We’re often fortunate enough to receive more individuals seeking manager and coach positions than we have teams.
If we are unable to assign you a team, we can still use your help in many other areas.

If you are planning on working with the players in any way (Managing, coaching, Team parent, Snack Shack, Helping at practices, etc...)
You will be required to take a background check and pass the Ace Certification (detailed information below). 
The total cost will be approximately $30.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR WILLINGNESS TO VOLUNTEER! 

If you have already filled out the volunteer form please see the steps below.
