Applications for Umpires, Concession Workers, and Grounds/Field Workers may be found here. While we hope to hire many workers for the season, please keep in mind that submitting an application and attending training does not guarantee a position or a minimum number of weekly hours if offered a position. The League will purchase shirts for all hired as Umpires, Concession Workers, and Grounds/Field Workers.

Anyone 15 years and younger needs a Work Permit the first season they work for SPYBAS. Once you have obtained a work permit and submitted it to SPYBAS you do not need to do this again. Work permits can be obtained from the Department of Workforce Development here. Select "recreational" as the nature of the business:
