If a manager, coach, scorekeeper, or player has been in the system, the name will appear with their USA Softball ID number. Please use this and do not enter the person again.

Required information MAY include copies of concussion certificates for new managers, coaches, and scorekeepers. If we received a copy previously, we do not need another one.

Additionally, all players need to have a signed concussion form on file. Only those new players that have not signed a concussion form with us will need to file a form.

All of the concussion information is located on the TEAMS page, in the last two columns to the far right.

Before any registration is approved, we need to have all of the required information. Please send everything in one packet, at one time. Your team will NOT be approved until we have all documents that are required. We do not want partial registrations sent to us, as this creates a lot of extra work for you and for our office. Your registration will be returned if it does not contain all of the required documents.

Before sending in your registration, please check to make sure that you have the following:

• Invoice
• Payment
• Birth Certificates (if indicated on the invoice)
• Concussion Certificate for managers, coaches, scorekeepers, if needed (see above)
• Signed concussion form by players, if needed (see above)

 

Once approved, the online registration will allow the manager to print the roster, and add to the roster, at the manager’s convenience. Other documents are listed under the Printable Documents on the Team's Page.

All coaches, and scorekeepers should be registered on your team and background checked annually. If a team only lists one coach, then there should not be any other people helping with the team. This means no unregistered adults should be helping with coaching duties and should not be in the dugout, on the field, or helping with any practices. If you do NOT list all coaches, and scorekeepers, the team's insurance coverage is not valid, period.
