Children’s Privacy and Protection of Minors

Protecting the privacy and safety of children is a primary priority of this league.

​

The league does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children through the website. Player information is collected only through a parent or legal guardian during the official registration process.

​

Personal identifying information about players will not be publicly displayed on the website. The league does not publish player addresses, phone numbers, personal contact information, or other sensitive identifying information.

The league exercises caution to prevent the public disclosure of information that could compromise the safety, privacy, or location of youth participants.

​

Volunteer Background Screening and Safety Compliance

Little League Baseball and Softball requires that all volunteers who have regular contact with or authority over players complete a background check in accordance with the Little League Child Protection Program (LLCPP).

Volunteers registering through the league authorize the league to conduct background screening using information necessary to verify eligibility to serve in a youth sports environment.

Volunteer information submitted for screening purposes is handled with strict confidentiality and is accessible only to authorized league officials responsible for safety compliance.

Volunteers may also be required to complete mandatory training programs required by Little League Baseball and Softball, including safety and abuse awareness training. Completion of required training may be a condition of volunteer participation.

​
