Any adult participating in youth sports activities with direct engagement with minor (under 18) players must successfully pass a background check. This includes Board Members, Coaches, Assistant Coaches and any player volunteers (helping kids during practices also counts). Background checks are not required for field or tournament coordinators that have field related activities (field prep, announcing booth, concessions, etc.)
Background checks are valid for two beginning with the date of registration.
The 2 year validation began in 2019 whan all coaches had to take the background check. If you did so your are due again for 2021
If you would like to volunteer in any manner described above, you must complete a background check prior to the beginning of the season.
Please contact your Division Director or Vice President of Baseball Operations if you have any questions.
If you need to be reimbursed for the fee for the background check, please contact the Dover Baseball Treasurer for instructions
