One of the essential functions of coaches and team managers is to manage team communications with players and their families.  If you are a coach or team manager, SportsEngine has created a Team Management Guide for Coaches and Team Managers to help you use our website and mobile app to efficiently and effectively communicate and manage your teams.

Baseball Alberta will be offering NCCP clinics online, with the possibility of in person delivery if feasible.  Clinics should start being posted on the nccp.baseball.ca site toward the end of February and begin offering the clinics through the Zoom platform from the middle of March through spring. 

Baseball Canada has revised the NCCP coaching pathways as of January 1st, 2021.  Coaches who already had baseball NCCP training and/or certification will see that transferred over to the new pathways, without any loss of previous credentials.  This revised pathway will bring more clarity to the baseball community in general, as well as link contexts more directly to the needs of coaches at different age categories.  Baseball Canada will no longer use the Regional and Provincial Coach terminology with this new pathway.  The actual age groups used in baseball will be used as well as community sport program we already have in place. 

All coaches who appear on a provincial roster will need to complete Safe Sport e-Learning online module.  This module can be found in the CAC Locker or accessed through a link on your status page at nccp.baseball.ca.  Coaches who appear on provincial rosters will no longer be required to complete The Respect In Sport online module, however, Baseball Alberta strongly recommends that associations mandate that their House League level coaches complete Respect In Sport or the Safe Sport e-Learning online module. 

As of January 1st, 2021, all certified coaches (renewed or not) will be considered certified.  The maintenance of certification cycle of 3 years will now become a 5 year cycle, during which coaches will be required to accumulate 20 professional development points for Competition Introduction Context (13U Coach, 15U Coach, and 16+ Coach) and 30 points over 5 years for Competition Development Coach.
