For each player registering to play in the House Baseball, House Softball, U5 Coed, or U6 Coed Leagues, one adult (18 years or older), must choose to either work one (1) Concession Work Duty shift OR buy out of the shift. The Team Manager (Head Coach) is exempt and does not have to work or buy out. **Assistant coaches are NOT exempt.
Option 1: $175 per child buy out of Concession Work Duty.
With this option you will pay an additional $175 fee per child registering to play House Baseball, House Softball, U5 Coed, and/or U6 Coed Leagues at AfftonAA. This must be paid for at the time of your online registration. You will be exempt from working any Concession Work Duty shifts through the 2027 season. This option is NOT be available after initial registration is completed.
Option 2: Concession Work Duty - 1 per child registered.
A $250 Concession Work Duty deposit check per child registered (separate checks for each child) is required. Please post-date these checks to 4/5/2027, the official start date of our season. This must be mailed to the AfftonAA field office as soon as possible to be fully registered:

You will be emailed a link from signup.com to sign up for your Concession Work Duty shift.
