SV All-Star Tournament

A. Why Mandatory Coaches meeting?

• To communicate requirements for certifying their All-Star team

• Ensure All-Stars Coaches know of info needed to certify their

team

• Emphasize importance of certifying the Team on the 1st

pass:

− collecting correct documentation

− submitting correct documentation

• Emphasis on collecting documentation now, don’t wait

• Sample Certification docs are located on the Section website:

www.siliconvalleynjb.com – under “Winter Leagues”, “Division

Rules & Docs”

In your role as a coach and the Referee’s role as a game official,

both should work more closely together nurturing our kids in our

Silicon Valley NJB program!
