A. Training League to 14U teams and individuals

• Parents will sign up for their work duty date & time when they register their child(ren) for league  play     

• One (1) work duty per child registered

• Each team will be given two work duty exemptions to use as they wish

• Families that "buyout" are exempt from work duties.  They MUST choose the buyout option at time  of registration     

• Directors’ families are exempt from work duties

   

  

  CONCESSION DUTY BUYOUT PROGRAM

      

All MAA families are eligible for the concession duty buyout program.  The cost is $125.00 per family.  Once the fee is paid, it covers all the children in the family and exempts the parents from working any concession duty for the spring/summer session.

 

MISSED CONCESSION DUTY FINE 

Penalty for failure to work your individual duty or for teams to provide appropriate number of concession workers is $200.  Teams that have failed to provide the appropriate number of concession workers on dates chosen, will be forced to forfeit all games until fine of $200.00 per unfilled worker slot is paid.

 

If I can not work, who is eligable to work my assigned concession duty shift?

It is their responsibility of the parent to either work the shift or find an eligible person, who is 21 years old or older, to work their shift for them.  No children under the age of 21 are permitted in the concession stand.

 

Unless you are specifically exempt from working a concession duty or paid the "buyout" fee, all parents must find their own replacement to work their shift.  This can be done several ways:

  a. Find another parent who has a duty at MAA and switch shifts with them.

  b. Find a friend, neighbor, or relative to work your duty.  Some parents even pay others to work their assigned shift. (This is strictly between you and the person working.  The parent is

      ultimately responsibility for the shift being filled.)

  c.  Post a message on the MAA Message Board noting that you are looking for someone to work your concession duty shift. 

  d.  Post a message on the bulletin board at the ball park.

MAA has implemented a rain out make up policy for concession stand duties.  If a parents' original concession work duty is rained out, they will be rescheduled for another date.  If the parent does not wish to work on the rescheduled date, they may buyout of this date ONLY for $50.00.  This buyout option does not apply to a parent's additional work duties (if any) they may have for other children playing at MAA.  Failure to work the rescheduled date results in the same penalties as failure to work the original work date.In implementing this policy, the Board felt this was a better option than requiring two work duty dates per child as most of the other Associations require.
