DIBS Information (Mandatory Volunteer Hours)

Summer DIBS Information

***DIBS has changed this season***

DIBS are White Bear Fastpitch's requirement of all Families to complete volunteer hours per Season.  The success of our program relies heavily on member volunteers to help with Field maintenance/preparation, concessions, and other one off needs during the season.  Please participate in this effort to support the athletes and our community.

  • 10u, 12u, 14u families: 8 hours per player with a maximum of 16 hours per family. (note: anyone over the age of 14 can complete the hours for the family)
  • 8u families: 2 hours per player with a maximum of 4 hours per family.
  • Failure to complete the required volunteer hours result in DIBS fees being billed at $400 per player with a $800 maximum per family ($100/$200 max for 8u).
  • During Registration, families will be required to EITHER accept the DIBS commitment OR pay the DIBS fee in advance as part of the athlete registration.
  • The association will not collect checks, instead we will bill via SportEngine at the end of the season, if the hours are not completed by July 21st.

Coaches/Manager DIBS Exemption:

The coaches/manager for each team receive a total of 24 hours toward their DIBS requirements. The coaching team must decide how to divide the hours (ex. 8 hours each to head coach and 2 assistants, 6 hours each to head coach, 2 assistants, and 1 manager, etc.) and communicate the decision to the Treasurer.

Board Member Exemption:

DIBS hours of board members are not formally tracked as they contribute beyond the maximum requirement per family through fulfilling their roles on the board year round.
