The State of Pennsylvania has implemented a new process for  ALL Volunteers who work with children.  Our league fully supports these changes to protect our players and their families.  If you are interested in becoming a coach or a volunteer, and if you will have direct contact with children, you must turn in an approved PA Criminal Background Check as well as a PA Child Abuse Clearance.  For details, visit the links below.
