Background Checks & Trainings

WYBS is required by Massachusetts state law to perform CORI checks on all volunteers.  In addition, our affiliation with Cal Ripken / Babe Ruth Baseball requires all volunteers to complete a background check and complete an Abuse Prevention Training.

All managers, coaches and league board members as well as any person who has consistent & direct contact with players through league sanctioned activities, must have a National Verified Background Check and Abuse Prevention Training completed and approved through Babe Ruth League, Inc. every 2 years.
