An Easy Way to Fundraise For Your Baseball Team

It’s been a decade of resurgence for youth baseball. Despite fears of kids abandoning sports altogether, including America’s pastime, participation is at a record high.

That’s not to say the way we play the game hasn’t changed. Little leagues have shrunk at the expense of higher cost travel programs, some of whom have multi-state trips on the calendar.

For these programs, fundraising has become a part of life. We know just how much fundraising matters to you, we’ve asked over 100 coaches about it, that’s why in addition to our popular baseball calendar fundraiser, baseball crowdfunding, and baseball lift a thon fundraisers, we’ve created “Fill My Baseball”. It’s an easy baseball themed fundraiser that works whether you have a baseball team, or another organization that just wants to fundraise in a unique way. One of many baseball fundraiser ideas that will work for your program.

What Is Fill My Baseball?

Exactly like it sounds, “Fill My Baseball” is a baseball themed template that has small rounded donation amounts in each subsection of the ball. If you fill the entire baseball, that’s $460 raised for your program. Even if you only fill half, $230 for one athlete fundraised is a pretty good haul! Download the free template below!

Donors choose and sign in the amount they want to donate, with the ultimate goal to get each section of the baseball accounted for. It’s an easy way to get your players to do some fundraising legwork while keeping it simple. The best part, fundraisers like these are coach approved!

The simple format encourages participation, and because there are no platform fees, every dollar raised goes straight to your team. Whether you're fundraising for uniforms, tournament fees, or travel costs, this template delivers results without the headaches that come with traditional fundraisers.

It’s as easy as 1…2…3…., three simple steps makes our Fill My Baseball fundraising template the simplest fundraiser you’ve ever run.

• Download and print the Fill My Baseball fundraising template. Print as many copies as you need, whether for a 10-player youth team or a full high school roster. ‍
• Distribute to your players with directions, including what to do if the baseball is filled.  
  
  • Hand out one copy of the template to each player. Be sure to explain how it works. Supporters choose an open donation amount on the baseball, fill in their name, and pay that amount. Let players know they can ask for a second sheet if they manage to fill the first one. Encourage them to share it with friends, neighbors, and family, both in person and at games or practices.
• ‍Collect your funds! Once your players have been given ample time to fundraise, collect your fill a baseball templates from your players along with all funds.
  
  • Set a clear deadline for the fundraiser, typically two to three weeks from the start. This gives players time, but provides a sense of urgency. On the due date, collect each player's completed template along with the cash, checks, or digital payments they received. Tally the total raised, celebrate your team’s success, and thank everyone who contributed to helping your baseball program grow.

What makes Fill My Baseball a coach favorite is how easy it is to run. There is no software to set up, no complicated instructions, and no accounts or passwords to track. You can print off the templates, hand them out after practice, and let your players take it from there. It’s a no-stress way to raise money without taking time away from coaching.

We all know that traditional fundraising works. Car washes, cookie dough fundraisers, and if you were a 90’s kid, maybe you remember Smencil fundraisers?

The baseball world has changed though, and fundraisers like above, while effective, aren’t efficient. $100-$200 profit fundraisers are no longer worth the effort. That’s why you need creative and team-driven fundraisers that are low effort, high yield. Which is where Teamfi comes in. The entire reason we exist is because our co-founders are brothers and their dad, a high school football coach, was sick of fundraising companies taking as much as 25% cuts from fundraisers. Teamfi was born from the notion that teams can fundraise and keep the money donated, whether it’s from our digital products or our “Fill My Baseball” template.

This fundraiser works for any level of baseball, from youth leagues and rec programs to competitive travel teams and high school squads. Parents appreciate how simple it is, and players can fill them out at their own pace. Some programs use it at the start of the season to build momentum, while others turn to it when they need a quick, reliable way to raise funds.
