SAFETY INFORMATION

Playing Ball Safely

The LTJBSA’s program-wide implementation of the Babe Ruth League SAFE and Little League ASAP programs are designed to provide on- and off-field volunteers, players, and parents with a high degree of safety awareness. While all sports carry an inherent risk of injury, our safety program seeks to mitigate and reduce that risk as much as possible. Our procedures outline what is expected for all involved in our programs.

Our safety plan consists of the following components:

Our LTJBSA Safety Manual, which is updated annually, compliant with the ASAP program, and submitted to Little League International for approval.
Our Volunteer Background Check process, to ensure all individuals that come in contact with players have been fully vetted by LTPD.
Annual Abuse Awareness and CDC Heads Up Concussion Training, required for any on-field volunteer.
USA Baseball Pitch Smart Guidelines for pitchers.
Equipment safety, such as requiring the use of a USABat compliant bat and NOSCAE-compliant helmets, face guards, and catchers gear.
Emphasis of safety in our Code of Conduct for all players, parents, coaches, spectators, and guests associated with our organization.
