New NALB Coaches Report Form
We have created and posted a new Coaches Report form and made it
available on the Rules and Forms
page. This report is to be used as a tool for providing feedback
from coaches on Umpire performance issues related to rule enforcement
and will be reviewed by the Athletic Committee in an effort to improve
adherence to American Legion Baseball rules. The following is
displayed on the top of the Coaches Report form:
"This report is to be submitted to the
Activities Director within 24 hours after a game in which an Umpire has
violated a Baseball rule, failed to enforce a Legion rule or displayed
poor/unacceptable conduct towards, coaches, players, or fans. Umpire
actions concerning “judgment calls”, “strike zone” or “personality
conflicts” are NOT what this form is for and will not be addressed. The
report should be submitted as soon as possible after the game (fax or
email). Give full name(s) of the involved parties. All reports will be
reviewed by the Committeeman for that area, the Head Legion Liaison
Umpire, and the Chairman to determine if corrective action is needed.
If it's deemed that corrective action is
necessary, the Chairman will call for a vote of the entire Committee to
determine what action will be taken."
This form is a PDF
FILLABLE form and can be submitted online...

New Background Verification for Coaches, Managers and Volunteers
Thousands of Legionnaires and members of the Legion family throughout
the nation donate countless volunteer hours each year for Baseball,
Oratorical, Boys State/Nation, Junior Shooting Sports, Junior Law Cadet
and Scouting. Our youth programs teach young people a variety of
practical skills, as well developing leadership, teamwork, discipline
and self-confidence. Our programs encourage a strong sense of
citizenship, patriotism and good-living, and participants of youth
programs in general tend to have higher graduation rates and are more
likely to attend college. Every youth program of The American Legion
relies heavily upon dedicated volunteers willing to contribute time and
skills for conducting essential functions of the programs.
The
American Legion National Headquarters has implemented risk management
policies, to include a background screening/monitoring
program for coaches, managers, and volunteer staff of Junior and Senior
American Legion Baseball teams. Prevention is key to being
proactive in mitigating abuse in youth programs. This comprehensive
child protection program will incorporate: (1) screening; (2)
established policies and safeguards; and (3) awareness and oversight.
