Little League & PCA Go to Bat for Winning+Life Lessons
Making better Little League coaches and administrators through enhanced education is the driving force behind Little League’s partnership with Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA). “This special partnership gives our program’s volunteers the tools to teach Little Leaguers much more than just the skills of hitting, throwing and catching a ball,” Stephen D. Keener, president and chief executive officer of Little League Baseball and Softball, said. “Positive Coaching Alliance’s Double-Goal Coach method affords Little League International the opportunity to enhance its educational material for our adult volunteers, so they can present the most well-rounded, healthy and positive experience regardless of skill level.”

Little League Parent Orientation Program
The Little League Parent Orientation Program was created in 2001 to better educate Little League parents regarding the purpose of the Little League program.

“We know that the vast majority of parents at Little League events conduct themselves properly,” said Stephen D. Keener, president and chief executive officer of Little League Baseball and Softball. "Thankfully, there are only a few who do not understand that the enjoyment of children is the goal of Little League. The Little League Parent Orientation Program gives our local league volunteers advice on the best way to handle those situations when a parent’s behavior gets out of hand."

The Parent Orientation Program is available online as a resource for any visitor to the Little League web site. To view the presentation, click on the headline above.

The presentation includes the Youth Sports Parent Code of Conduct, the Little League Pledge and the Little League Parent/Volunteer Pledge, and many other features.
