Coach Registration

PSO leagues strive to make every child a champion. Therefore, PSO coaches are led to encourage, motivate, and build each child’s self-esteem as well as his or her athletic ability.

All head coaches must register online each season (registration is free). Please read through the directions below on how to register. This process will register you as the head coach and will sign up your team.

NOTE: Assistant coaches no longer need to register in Sports Connect.

Those coaching more than one team must select all divisions in which they are coaching and list all teams during the registration process.

Mandatory Volunteer/Coach Screening Process

At Prestonwood Baptist Church, we are committed to creating a safe environment, free from abuse of any kind. Therefore, we require all staff members and volunteers to be approved through a two-step process:

1. Background check (annual requirement)

2. Sexual Abuse Awareness Training (required every two years)

ALL COACHES — You must complete Touchpoint background screening using the link on the main page.

Steps for Head Coaches to Register

1. Create a new account if you have never logged in or log in with existing credentials by using the buttons at the top right of the page.

2. Click on “Coach Sign Up” above, and then click on “Volunteer Now.”

3. Select the division(s) in which you want to coach. If you coach more than one team, please select all the divisions that apply, and then click “Continue” at the bottom of the page.

4. Select yourself to be the head coach.

5. Enter your remaining information. This is where you will enter your team's name.

6. Your team page is created! Go to your team page and click on the “Roster” tab. Then click on the “Manage Roster Invites” button. From here, you can invite players to your team by entering their e-mail addresses.

This page also tells you how many players have joined your team, the minimum and maximum players per team, and displays your team code. You can share this code with players you want on your team. Please tell your parents not to share the team code; only you should invite players.

Coaches, keep in mind that there is a maximum number of players per team. If you played in our league last season, you must invite all of your players back. If you have an open spot, you may fill it with a new player of your choice. However, in most cases, any player that played on another team in our league last season is not eligible to join your team.

Please read the Rules for complete details.

Uniform Order

PSO has a preferred provider relationship with Cardinal’s Sport Center. Coaches must collect uniform information from the players and place the order for the entire team by using one of the Coach Order Forms below and the player roster.

Please e-mail the forms to Don Hall or take them by the store (details below). Parents, please talk to your coach about what you need.

Equipment

Players are responsible for supplying glove, shoes, and bats. Each player may not need their own bat; they may share with other members of their team.

Coaches Meeting

All head coaches are required to attend our mandatory coaches’ meeting at the beginning of each season. Assistant coaches are encouraged to attend as well.
