As we get ready for another great season, the safety and well-being of our players continues to be our top priority. To help ensure a positive and secure environment for everyone, Little League® requires all volunteers to complete two (2) free online training courses and one (1) paid course before participating in league activities.

Required for All Volunteers

Anyone planning to volunteer at the snack stand or serve as a coach (including assistant coaches) must complete the following training courses:

Diamond Leader Training
https://www.littleleague.org/diamondleader/

This course is good for life – once completed, you will not need to complete again

Abuse Awareness Training
https://www.littleleague.org/university/articles/abuse-awareness-training-course/

This course needs to be completed annually

Additional Requirement for Coaches

In addition to the above, all Head and Assistant Coaches must also complete:

Rutgers Youth Sports Safety Clinic (provided by Rutgers University)
https://youthsports.rutgers.edu/safety-clinic-course/

This is the only paid course – but it is good for life and will not need to be completed again and is required for most youth sport coaches (not just baseball)

Please note that these training courses are required by Little League® and must be completed before participating in practices, games, or working in the snack stand.

If you plan to volunteer this season, we kindly ask that you complete the courses as soon as possible.

We truly appreciate your time and cooperation. These steps help us maintain a safe, supportive, and fun experience for all of our players and families.
