EVALUATION DAYS FOR NEW CANAAN BASEBALL/SOFTBALL, INC.
·         DRESS COMFORTABLY - Sneakers, comfortable clothes and a glove are a must. Feel free to use batting gloves, if you wish.
·         MUST SHOW UP - Evaluations are mandatory. We are committed to team parity so your compliance is essential.
·         DON’T ARRIVE EARLY - Please note the evaluation timeslots here. There is a line at the start of each evaluation session so it’s smart to show up a little later, to zip right through the process.
·         SIGN IN FIRST - You must stop by the sign in table to receive an identification badge. Players will be ushered into the gym and parents are not permitted in the gym.
·         NO ONE GETS CUT! - Please remind your player that these are not tryouts. Everyone will get on a team. These are evaluations only to obtain an even, controlled measure of the entire division by a group of commissioners and coaches and to ensure parity in team selection.
·         BIRTH CERTIFICATES - If you have not provided us with a birth certificate ever, please remember to hand it in by that day. 

Thank you!

WE'RE LOOKING FOR VOLUNTEERS TO HELP WITH COMPUTER WORK!
by posted 01/10/2010
 

New Canaan Baseball/Softball, Inc. is looking for volunteers to assist in the various responsibilities of the registrar and webmaster.  Do you have 1-2 hours per week that you could be helping us, from your own home, to keep the website and member records accurate and up to date?  Are you very comfortable with Word, Excel, and Outlook?  Then take a look at the job descriptions below and see if any appeal to you!

We've carefully looked at all of the responsibilies of the webmaster and registar and realize that concentrating some of the chores to individuals would increase effficiency and make these  two board positions more manageable.

Registrar Responsibilities needing assistance:
    1.) Coach Certification:  For the Babe Ruth / Cal Ripken League, all coaches must take and pass a certification training course on coaching.  At the beginning of each of the 3 seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall), this volunteer would need to contact each coach and assistant coach who has not provided certification and help them get their certification, then record them as in compliance, before they begin coaching.  Each coach needs to only be certified once for lifetime coaching.
    2.) Player Evaluations:  At the end of the Spring Season each year, the coaches of each team must fill out a full evaluation form that includes a numbered rating for Hit, Field, Throw and Pitch (if applicable), as well as provide a short explanation of each player's strengths and weaknesses, etc.  This volunteer would need to contact each coach, providing them with the blank form listing their team, then gather it back and provide the completed set of evaluations to the registrar.
Webmaster Responsibilities needing assistance:
    1.) Schedules:  During the Spring, Summer and Fall seasons, we would need 1 volunteer for each division, baseball and softball, to keep the game schedule accurate.  All games would be entered prior to the season, division by division, through an excel upload of the file. This volunteer would make changes to the system as games are cancelled, delayed or forfeited, day by day.  This job would require about 15 minutes worth of work each day on their home computer.
    2.) Photo Album Maintenance:  We need one person to help the parent managers to upload photos to their team website, as well as maintain the slideshow on our Home Page so that the most recent tournaments are highlighted.  We need this individual to keep the seperate Photo Albums within our system organized, labelled and dated properly.

A 5th volunteer position, involving the secure gathering of birth certificates for all players is being handled well and has been immensely helpful to the board.

Please email  if you would like to help the New Canaan Board with these Registrar and Webmaster responsibilities.  Your assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks!
Susan Moran

COACHES′ CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
by posted 11/04/2008
 
Ripken Baseball has partnered with Babe Ruth League and the American Sport Education Program to provide online training and certification for all coaches within the organizations that join the Ripken Baseball and Babe Ruth League.  The deadline has come and gone so we must be in full compliance for the Spring of 2010.  If you are slated to be a coach or assistant coach for either baseball or softball going forward, we urge you to take the course immediately.  You only need to take it once.  All completed certifications must be communicated to the registrar,  so that your records can be updated.

The course is available online at www.RipkenCoaching.org and takes approximately 1-4 hours to complete, which includes reading material and a certification test at the end.  You do not have to complete the program in one sitting.  You can stop and leave the material and then return at a later date to continue further with the instruction.  Some take the test first, to determine those areas where they need instruction.  Online registration for the test requires a $20.00 fee.  Once you have been certified through this online training program, you are certified for your entire career as a Cal Ripken or Babe Ruth coach.  You can take the either the softball or baseball course and once certified, you can coach either sport.  For further information, visit the Ripken Coaching website or contact Jim Mase at .
