You said yes. Now there’s a checkbook, a registration platform login, a cash box, and a board meeting next month.
Most youth sports league treasurers get the job with no training at all. This course walks you through your first year in six practical sessions, with plain-English explanations built around a community baseball and softball league you’ll get to know along the way.
- How to take over from the last treasurer, and what to collect before they leave
- Registration platform payouts, processing fees, and a refund policy families can see
- Running the concession stand so no one is ever alone with the cash
- Paying umpires and referees the right way, with W-9s and Form 1099-NEC
- Sponsors, scholarships, travel team budgets, and why team accounts are a bad idea
- Monthly reports, the season budget, and surviving the winter cash drought
- Simple controls that protect the league’s money and your good name
Each session ends with discussion questions to work through with your board, your league president, or the outgoing treasurer. A companion workbook with practice exercises and reproducible forms is available separately.
The treasurer books are general education for volunteers. They are not individual tax, legal or accounting advice; for your organization's specific situation, consult a qualified professional.
