Background checks are required for all Coaches head and assistants for both football and cheer, Team Dads or Moms and/or team managers. The organization we use to complete the league background checks is National Center for Safety Initiatives and they are partners with Sports Engine. They are great companies dedicated to helping leagues keep kids safe.

There is no longer a registration number needed to complete your background check. Just enter your personal information and agree to the disclosures and complete the balance of the application. Background Checks are paid for Bi-Annually but are checked each year. If you paid for and completed a background check for the 2019 season before July 1 2019 then you do not have to pay for a new background check for the 2020 season it will automatically be researched and completed again for the 2020 season. If you did NOT pay for a background check in 2019 before July 1 2019 and wish to either be a Coach, Team Dad or Team Mom or Team Manager for 2020 then you must complete and pay for a new background check for 2020.
