Respect All, Fear None!

Child Abuse Awareness Training

New, starting with the 2024 season, all Little League volunteers who are required to complete a Little League Volunteer Application and Background Check must also complete abuse awareness training prior to assuming any of his or her duties for the 2024 season. It is important that all volunteers in a league complete the training on an annual basis. Even though it may be a training an individual has completed in the past, it is important to keep the information that is taught through Abuse Awareness Training fresh in everyone’s mind. The more individuals involved in a league that have the information that Abuse Awareness Training provides, the better. More information about this requirement can be found on the littleleague.org website.
