Thank you for your interest in becoming a volunteer for the Davenport Northwest Little League!
The league runs entirely on volunteers, and relies on dedicated parents like you for its success!
Please reach out to the respective board member or the League President with any questions if interested.
Board contact information.
Once you know your interest, please use the form at the bottom of this page to apply for a volunteer position.
*NOTE: If your child/children play in a different division from what you wish to volunteer for, make sure you click the "Show All Volunteer Opportunities" button in the lower right of the screen. If you are purely a volunteer with no child in the league, you should see all options for all divisions.*
Example: If your child plays in Majors division, but you want to volunteer for a position in the Minors Division, click the button to show all opportunities. The volunteer form assumes you wish to volunteer in the same division as your child/children and therefore defaults the volunteer opportunities to that.
If you accidentally sign up to volunteer for the incorrect division, please contact the Board Information Officer using the board contact information link above.

Once you are in the portal and have completed the training, follow these next steps:
