DIBS Opportunity!
DIBS Opportunity! Sign-up under the Concessions tab in DIBS.
5 slots are available on Saturday, May 4th from 9am to 12noon to assist with the City of Northfield Sandlot Service project.
The goal is to make the field more playable for anyone looking to play ball, some of which include our NYBA 10U and 11U Traveling teams.
To best assist with this job you'll want to wear some sturdy clothing, shoes, and work-gloves that will likely return home dirty. Ability to lift approximately 40 pounds is a plus (but not required).
We will meet at the Roosevelt ballfield at 9:00am on May 4th, go over a few brief instructions, then proceed with the job through completion.
Please bring any garden/lawn tools, rakes, edgers, and other equipment you believe would be helpful for improving this ballfield.

2024 DIBS REQUIREMENTS **last updated in 2022**
The NYBA will be collecting checks for the DIBs volunteer program, requiring a commitment of 5 hours per HOUSEHOLD.
Families are required to provide a check for $300 prior to participating in tryouts/evaluations for Travel or prior to the start of the season for Community Rec League and all younger leagues. These checks will be held during the season.
If at the end of the 2024 season the household has completed the required volunteer hours, their check will be destroyed. However, if a household’s volunteer requirement has not been met by the end of the 2024 NYBA season, their check will be deposited into the NYBA account. Please note, if a deposited check does not have sufficient funds when it is deposited, a return fee will be invoiced to the member and/or applied to future registrations.
Volunteering is essential to any youth organization and we strongly encourage you to be involved in helping to make the season a successful one for our kids. However, if you think your family will not be able to fulfill the DIBs requirement we are now offering a buyout option. To participate in the buyout option, families must submit a check for $200. Buyout checks are also due at tryouts/evaluations or prior to the season and will be deposited at the time of receipt.
Families of rostered coaches, board members and travel team managers will be exempt from the required hours associated with DIBs.
We will be posting DIBs hours on our website under the DIBs tab as they become available. To claim tasks, you must be signed in to the same Sportsengine account as your baseball registration.
