Beginning this season, Babe Ruth/Cal Ripken Leagues are requiring all rostered coaches to be certified. See the PDF brochure on the Coaching Information handout section for an overview.  The certification course can be accessed at http://www.baberuthcoaching.org/.

All coaches who wish to coach at ABAA this season should begin this process with the intent of obtaining certification prior to the first game (scheduled for Feb. 23). The course should take 2-3 hours to complete. It does not need to be completed in one session. The cost is $19.95 and certification is good for 3 years.  It is the coach's responsibility to pay for the course and to inform the league upon completion.

Also attached are other forms for coaches to complete. The registration and responsibilities forms must be completed by all prospective coaches. New coaches must also complete the background check form. All forms must be turned in by Saturday, Jan. 19, if you want to coach this year.

Coaches also must attend the coaches meeting at 1 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 20 at Jack Russell Park.
