We are continuing our sessions designed to enhance your coaching by using the technology of video analysis with LittleLeagueConnect.org. Little League Connect is a completely web-based program that installs no software on your PC, laptop, and/or handheld device, and is simple and fun to use.
To get all of you off to a great start this season, we have committed to scheduled live online sessions to explain and train you on how to use Little League Connect.
Coach's / Manager's Role
The Little League manager and coach must be leaders. All must recognize that they hold a position of trust and responsibility in a program that deals with a sensitive and formative period of a child’s development.
It is required that the manager and coach have understanding, patience and the capacity to work with children. The manager and coach should be able to inspire respect. Above all else, managers and coaches must realize that they are helping to shape the physical, mental and emotional development of young people. Read More . . .

Little League International is pleased to announce an enhancement to its volunteer coaches training programs with the addition of “Big Al Baseball” Clinics and several new tools, materials and resources. In 2012 many Little League districts and leagues across North America will have the opportunity to participate in the clinic series. If you would like to host a clinic please contact Big Al directly at al@bigalbaseball.com.
The clinics are organized into two four-hour training sessions; One session targets coaches and parents working with players 4-to-8 years old and the second session is for coaches of players 9-to-13 yrs old. Both sessions are designed to help coaches and coaching coordinators; teach the skills, correct common mistakes, plan active practices, leverage effective drills and competitions and organize proper warms and pre-game activities. Participants will be introduced to the curriculum needed for the upcoming season.
Big Al and Scott make the training sessions fun and interactive; coaches please come prepared to participate and remember to wear comfortable clothing and bring a glove.
Big Al’s library of training materials and resources match the hands-on training at the clinics. If you are not able to get to one of the clinics, order your own set of training materials at: http://www.bigalbaseball.com/ or http://www.littleleaguestore.net/.
To attend Big AL Baseball clinics in your area, visit the Little League Clinics page for an up-to-date schedule of all clincs and events.
