The Santa Barbara YFL is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization. Members of the community freely donate their precious time because they believe in the program. Many more volunteers are needed. Teams need assistant coaches, team managers, auditors and chain gang. The Board of Directors needs volunteers to assist with Registration, Parent/Player Meeting, Jamboree and help with the set up and clean up fields on game days. The Board also needs skilled and available people to fill vacant board positions.
The YFL requires a $50 volunteer deposit per child to ensure their volunteer commitment. It is each person's responsibility to meet his or her commitment and obtain a receipt. After completion of the volunteer time, the refund will be dispersed according to the instructions marked on the Volunteer Commitment form. If someone commits to a volunteer job and fails to appear at the appointed time or to provide a substitute to work in their stead, their deposit will be forfeited. Those who have not yet served their volunteer hours by the end of the season will also forfeit their deposit. Please remember that volunteering is not just about earning your volunteer deposit back, it is about supporting your child and helping to make the program possible.
Refunds will be considered when accompanied by Withdrawal from Program Request form on the following basis:
A full refund minus a $10 administrative fee will be granted to players who quit before the 1st scheduled Certification Day.
A refund of 50% of the total fee amount paid will be granted to players who quit after the 1st scheduled Certification Day and before Jamboree.
No refunds will be given after the Jamboree.
No refunds will be considered unless all other obligations with the YFL have been met, such as raffle ticket turn-in and/or equipment turn-in.
The Board will consider special circumstances. All Board decisions are final.
