Coaching is the lifeblood of our organization. The success of MYB and the growth and development of the players within it depends on dedicated volunteers willing to teach our players the fundamentals of the game of baseball, as well as teamwork, competitive sportsmanship and respect for the game and for others.
We are incredibly thankful to those who volunteer their time to coach.
Babe Ruth League has standardized the background check and abuse prevention training requirements for all volunteers in our league, including coaches. This streamlines the process somewhat, although the individual administrative burden on each coach is a little greater. We recognize this and ask for your understanding that it is required to have all managers and coaches complete the new Babe Ruth League process to be considered for a manager or coach role in 2022.
IF YOU COMPLETED *BOTH* PARTS OF THE PROCESS IN 2021 (THE BACKGROUND CHECK AND THE ABUSE PREVENTION TRAINING), COMPLETE THIS REGISTRATION AND WE WILL NOTIFY YOU THAT YOU ARE ARE EXEMPT FROM COMPLETING THESE ITEMS AGAIN UNTIL 2023.
The new coach registration is now a two-step process:
1. Complete this registration program. There are no followup questions for this registration program this year.
2. After you complete the registration process on the MYB web site, you will see (and be emailed) a link to a SportsEngine registration program that will both perform a background check and conduct an abuse safety training. The successful completion of both of these items will notify MYB that you are cleared to coach for 2022. (This step is an every-other-year process; in other words, all who complete this background check/abuse training this winter will be set until 2024.)
ONLY THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE COMPLETED THIS PROGRAM WILL BE ALLOWED TO MANAGE OR COACH IN ANY CAPACITY IN 2022.
