VOLUNTEER
Small Acts. Big Impact.
Every donated soccer ball, basketball, baseball glove, and pair of cleats tells a story. Behind every donation is a volunteer who chose to make a difference. Whether you can volunteer for one event or become a regular member of your local Donation Chapter, your time helps children stay in the game.
Join us in building stronger communities—one piece of sports equipment at a time.

Community Service Hours
One of the best parts of Locker League is that every chapter is encouraged to think creatively.
League Captains and volunteers are invited to develop new ideas that strengthen their chapter and serve more children.
We Love Big Ideas!
Ideas might include:
Partnering with local athletes or sports teams
Asking sporting goods stores to donate clearance or returned equipment
Hosting neighborhood sports tournaments or skills clinics
Organizing school equipment drives
Creating social media campaigns
Recruiting local businesses as sponsors
Great ideas often become national Locker League programs.
