Concession Stand Managers Needed

Becoming a Concession Stand Manager for a season is a great way to support our teams!

​​

It's also an easy, fun way to make the home game experience one-of-a-kind for both home and visiting fans!

 

Without Stand Managers, we cannot have Concessions for a team's home games!

​

What Does A Stand Manager Do?

• Arrive 30-60 minutes before doors open to prepare the stand and train other volunteers.

• Ensure the stand is operating smoothly during the game and address any issues that arise.

• Handle opening the registers and, at the end of the game, counting the cash and sales, completing a Sales Report after each game.

• Direct volunteers in clean up and closing procedures so the stand is ready for the next game.

• Secure the cash deposit from each game in the safe in your Concession Stand so that the Treasurer can collect it.

​

Do I have to work the entire game?

• Generally, Stand Managers can open and close the stand and come and go to check on the stand. However, you will be in charge of making sure the stand is running smoothly during the game and be attentive to the volunteers and the questions that come up. 

​

Do we have to count Inventory?

• Not anymore! In the past, inventory sheets needed to be completed and reconciled each game. Now we use an iPad point-of-sale system that tracks each sale and every item we sell. You will ensure that all sales are run through the iPad and complete an "Inventory Checklist" at the end of the game to help the Operations Manager restock.

​

Who else works with in the Stand?

• Concession Stand volunteers are organized by each team's Booster Rep for the game they are assigned. Volunteers are usually parents, students or other friends & family from the team. Anyone is allowed to work any game, not just the game they were assigned. We ask that all volunteers be in Middle School or above (Middle School students MUST sign up with a parent if they have not volunteered before).

​

What kind of Reports do I need to do?

• A Sales Report will be completed at the end of the game and emailed to the Boosters. A Volunteer Sign In Sheet will also be filled out by each person volunteering. The Stand Manager will also email this to the Boosters at the end of the game in order to properly track volunteer time. These forms are very simple! 

​​​

What about Training?

• You will be trained by other Stand Managers or Booster Directors prior to starting and we will work with you the first couple games as needed. Don't be afraid! This is a fun job!
