Amongst the board members are those that have helped out contributing with field prep, scheduling, scorekeeping, umpiring, equipment and uniform management, snack bar operations, and fund raising. Everyone can find a place to help. If you love the game of baseball, but can t be available often enough to coach, umpiring is a great way to volunteer. CPBA provides all of the training anyone needs. Some people worry that they are not qualified.
Nobody is until they get trained.
Different coaches have different philosophies. Some believe in having players play all the positions. Some want players to become good at one. Don t argue in front of the kids and criticize in the background if you think your child is being treated unfairly. As parents, it is natural to be very protective, but most coaches aren t discriminating.
