Work Duty Agreement For House Individual Registration

We suggest you print this agreement for your files, so you have all the information.

For each player registering to play in a House Baseball, House Softball, or u5-u6 Coed Instructional League, one adult 18 years or older, must choose between working 1 Work Duty shift or buying out of your shift. Managers only of teams (1 per team) are exempt and do not have to work or buy out.  

Option 1: $175 per child buyout of Work Duty.

With this option you will pay an additional $175 fee per child registered. This must be paid at the time of your online registration. You will be exempt from working any Work Duty shifts through the 2026 season. This option will NOT be available after initial registration is completed.

Option 2: Work Duty - you will choose your own Work Duty shift (1 per child registered).

A $250.00 Work Duty deposit check per child registered (separate checks for each child) is required. Checks are held and not cashed unless you do not report for your Work Duty. This must be mailed to the AfftonAA field office as soon as possible to be fully registered:

Affton Athletic Association
Work Duty Deposit
PO Box 4360
St. Louis, MO 63123

The child will not be drafted or placed on a returning team until the Work Duty deposit is received. Checks will be returned after completion of Work Duty. If rained out, your check will be held for re-assignment with no additional fees. If you need a change in your assigned time, a 7-day notice is necessary, and you must pay a $25 fee. (Credit or debit card to the field office before you can choose another date and time.) With this option, you will be able to choose your date and time pending availability by AfftonAA. AfftonAA reserves the right to cancel and reschedule any shift at any time. Choices for dates and times are limited and will be available online by 3/2/2026. Each family must schedule one shift per registered player. AfftonAA will email you with the link to sign up for the work duty with a deadline to choose your shift. If you do not choose your own shift by the deadline, AfftonAA will assign a shift for you and all rescheduling options will apply.
