Online Coaches Resource Center
The Little League Coach Resource Center can be used by any manager or coach of a chartered Little League program. After completing the charter process for the new year, league president's are sent the online access code for the Resource Center. Managers and Coaches receive their authorization from the league to use the Center.
The Little League Coach Resource Center, located on the World Wide Web at: www.LittleLeagueCoach.org is a free service created by Little League International in cooperation with Cramer Digital Marketing.
The website includes interactive videos and related written content to help support Little League’s managers and coaches. Unlike training programs offered or mandated by some other youth sports organizations, the Little League Coach Resource Center is completely free.
The resource center is Little League Baseball and Softball’s latest, most extensive volunteer training and education tool. Content contributors include two-time USA Olympic Softball gold medalist Michele Smith and the Positive Coaching Alliance, along with other Little League Baseball and Softball’s licensees, which have committed to provide content in the future.
All of the content available at: www.LittleLeagueCoach.org is maintained by Little League International and supported by a host of content contributors. Another feature of the site is the video presentations, which in many cases, also are available with a printable transcript, making the information portable.
Sample video clips are available to unregistered members.

Coaches Registry
Better Coaches. Better Games. Better Leagues. Managers and coaches are among the most important volunteers in the Little League program. They have to know the game and they have to love working with kids. Leagues with knowledgeable, caring and concerned coaches have an advantage when it comes to making the games fun and retaining players.
That’s why Little League International created The Coaches Registry. The registry gives coaches exclusive tools and resources to prepare them for the job of putting the Little League program into action:
- Electronic rulebooks
- DVD/VHS training materials
- The Little League Official Coach and Manager Training program manual
- Deep discounts on items purchased through the Little League online store.
All that you need to improve your coaching ability, to reach the players you’re coaching, and to make the league a great place for children and parents alike.
Coaches may choose from any of three levels of play when they register:
- Baseball Getting Started - for tee ball and coach pitch divisions
- Baseball Minors and Majors
- Softtball - for Minors and Majors divisions of softball
