Why Online Registration only?

Currently, We are only accepting online registration. This decision has been made to allow for reduction of the time required by our volunteers to complete offline registration and to reduce of the risk of human error during data entry, collection of fees, and forms.

We are a volunteer organization, who in years past spent an inordinate amount of time on data entry during registraton. We have made the decision to go with an online registration as it frees our volunteers to perform tasks that we deem important in advancement of our league and the benefit of your children.

Are online registration transactions secure?

We the EGLL Board have chosen Active as our registration company. The Active Network is the official the Official Online Community of Little League Baseball and Softball since 1999. Through The Active Network, parents can register players at their convenience from home or the office.

Active.com protects registrants' payment information at all times using several thorough security policies and safeguards. Strict security begins at the point of data transmission, where we use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption certificates issued by industry leader VeriSign (www.verisign.com) on all of our payment servers. This SLL encryption scrambles all payment information between the registrants' computers and our servers, payment data is effectively locked away by storing payment data on separate servers that do not have direct access to the Internet, and protecting them from digital access using a firewall. Payment data is further secured by limiting access, in fact denying access, from the Web site. Our Web site does not read credit card data from the database, nor does it make that data available to event administrators using our data export utility. Thus, credit card data is never available on the Web site, never leaves the Active systems, and event administrators are protected from the risk they would incur if they had to store and protect that data themselves.
