Thank you to all of our managers, coaches, and assistants!  We would not run this league and provide the fun we do without you and you dedication!

 

Basic Responsibilities:

​

1)  Each coach is responsible for team communications (Such as using TeamReach), running practices and games, and for general team care. Coaches will disseminate League messages (Schedules, Updates, and Cancellations) to players and families.

 

2) Coaches will be responsible for all League equipment and materials provided in the equipment

  bag.  Bags consist of communal bats, batting helmets, catcher's gear, balls for practice, and a first aid kit.  Before games, coaches should quickly meet and address any special concerns/exceptions that might occur during the game and to exchange line-up cards.  Game balls will be provided by the League/Umpire at game time.  There are two game balls for each game - each team gets one to hand out to a player as the game ball award. 

*If any equipment becomes unusable or lost, please see a board member.

​

3) Coaches can set their own practice schedules.  Mondays and Wednesdays are usually reserved for A-Minor and Pony leagues and Tuesday and Thursdays reserved for B-Minor and Bronco.  During the season, some coaches practice and others don't.  If a field is not in use, you can hold a practice there, or use the additional green spaces for drills (including the batting cages.)

​

4) After games, hand out the game ball, clean up your team's dugout, and report scores to Andy Nicky.  Most teams use the Snack Shack for post-game treats.

​

Please refer to this attached document for specific rules for each League and all other general League rules and regulations.

​

Resources:

For coaching advice, please ask other coaches in the league.  Beyond that, the internet will have many resources for your specific needs and age levels.  Games, challenges, and races work well with both keeping attention and learning skills.  Make practice fun and teach sportsmanship and teamwork first!  

​

​

If there are any questions or concerns, please reach out to board member asap or contact someone over the coaches chat on Team Reach.

​

Our umpires have the final call for the ruling on the field.  They are also kids learning how to call a game.  There is ZERO TOLERANCE policy for argumentative conversation.
