Lakeland Little League: Travel Teams

Providing service in all 50 states, VitalChek is officially authorized by the United States government in agencies throughout the country to safely and conveniently provide a copy of your child’s birth certificate.

Using VitalChek’s birth certificate services, parents can order a birth certificate on-line.

"An original birth certificate is one of the primary proofs of age and identification that Little League requires for a child to participate in a local league," Pat Wilson, vice president of operations for Little League Baseball and Softball, said. "The VitalChek program allows for parents to receive a valid copy of their child’s birth certificate without the delay and inconvenience that comes with working through a hospital’s hall of records, or a state’s health department."

For almost 20 years, VitalChek has provided residents of the United States with official government certificates of birth, death, marriage and divorce. As an official service provider for more than 400 government agencies throughout the United States, U.S. Territories, and British Columbia, Canada, VitalChek safely delivers millions of vital records every year.

A vital record is a document issued by the government that provides proof of a major life event - birth, death, marriage, and divorce. As a U.S. resident, you have a right to have these certificates both for yourself and for certain members of your immediate family. VitalChek's Express Certificate Service provides a convenient way for you to order these documents online - quickly, affordably, and with added security to ensure your documents are safe.
