PLAYER PARTNERS
Calling all Team Coaches and Managers –
Baseball, Softball, Football, Hockey, Lacrosse, Bowling, Cheerleading, etc.
Family and Friends can sign up, too!
We are looking for Player Partners! We are presenting a unique opportunity for your team’s players to offer their skills, guidance, and comradeship in return for a rewarding experience that is unequalled to any other, plus a bonus of community service toward graduation. We provide a Certificate to each volunteer and it will be the best 3 hours of community service spent!
Player Partners (“PP”) assist Dream Team (“DT”) players by a process of “shadowing.” Each PP will be assigned a player they will accompany while in the outfield encouraging and directing the play as needed. During an At-Bat, the PP will assist by running alongside their DT player from base to base, again encouraging and directing as needed.
We play 2 games simultaneously on Saturday mornings (May 13 – June 17) five games are the Grand Traverse Civic Center and one (June 17th) at Blair Township Baseball Fields. Two Civic Center games are scheduled doubleheaders (June 3rd and 10th) so please note when volunteering. Player Partners must arrive 30 minutes prior to game time 9:30am (12:00 for dbl-header) so they can attend a brief overview of the Dream Team rules, how they are to assist their player, get their assignments, and ask any questions they may have. Ideally, we would like to have enough players partners to cover each DT player on each team. Each Dream Team consists of 10-12 players. Games are complete after 3 innings or 12:00 pm (2:00pm for dbl-header), whichever comes first.
The volunteer site is divided by game days and Junior and Senior games. Each game (Junior and Senior) will require approximately 20 Player Partners, so if you wish to cover both games it will be 40 Player Partner volunteers. However, if you only have a few Player Partners available, you can still sign up.
Rain delays will be posted on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/dreamteamtraversecity
