Coaches Corner

​

Saint John Little League is a volunteer-run organization, which is why it is important to get involved. 

Below are some of the many ways to get involved at Saint John Little League:

​

Head Coach

All teams require coaches. (Coach-Pitch and T-Ball require many) By stepping up and taking on a coaching position, you are ensuring your child is having the best ball experience possible. 
No experience is necessary. We provide resources to our coaching team on how to run an effective practice and share game rules. ​

​

Field Coach

Just like all teams require Head Coaches, they also require Field Coaches who manage the dugout, ensuring kids are ready to bat when it's their turn and safe practices are followed on the field, 
Parent volunteers are also a critical part of the success of our T-Ball and Coach Pitch programs. This program is often the players first experience at an organized sport and therefore require a lot of attention and guidance. in order for each child to get something out of the program, it is imperative to have 1 Field Coach for every 5 kids. We provide each coach with handbook that details out what to do each week, so there is really no experience necessary to fill this role. 

​

Parent Committee

For SJLL to keep registration costs low, we need Parent Committee members to help with minor fundraising throughout the season (selling 50/50 at the games). Where we are a volunteer-run organization, helping with special events, also ensures we are able to offer a positive experience for all who play.  

 

Creating a safe and fun environment for learning and competing is integral to Saint John Little League. To ensure the safety of all of our players, each of our coaches takes part in a police background check. To get started on this process early, please send us an email at saintjohnlittleleague@gmail.com to get the form.
