Approved Volunteers
Who needs to be approved as a volunteer?
Every volunteer, in every volunteer role, is required to complete the annual Little League Abuse Awareness training, as well as submit an online background check (see below for details). Volunteers who wish to be managers, coaches, or otherwise spend significant time with players will also need to be fingerprinted (if they have not done so for CPLL anytime previously; fingerprinting is available during league-sponsored days)

INSTRUCTIONS
There are 3 main requirements to become an approved volunteer -- a background check, a Little League Abuse Awareness training, and fingerprinting. The background check and abuse training are required each year. The fingerprinting is only required once ever for Cambrian Park LL. Note that fingerprint records are not shared between organizations, so your fingerprint from a school or other sports league does not count for CPLL.
Here are the steps to get fully verified:
1. Register as a volunteer on the Sports Connect website. You may have done this when you signed up.
- Go to https://www.cpllbaseball.org
- Click LOGIN
- Go to My Account
- Click Volunteer from the left panel
- Click "Find Volunteer Roles" and register for the role(s) you intend to do
2. Complete the JDP background check
- When you get an e-mail from JDP, follow the link and complete the background check
3. Complete the abuse awareness course and upload your certificate
- Complete the course at https://www.littleleague.org/university/articles/abuse-awareness-training-course/
- You will be e-mailed a PDF certificate of your completion
- To get credit with the league, you must upload the certificate into your profile
- In your Sports Connect profile, go to My Account -> Volunteer and find your roles & certifications. Click the small pencil icon. Scroll to the bottom and find the place to upload "Training Certifications" and upload your certificate
- Please upload the certificate for all of your roles. For example, if you see roles for Team Manager, Umpire, and Volunteer, please upload the document for all of the roles.
4. Get Fingerprinted
- If you've been fingerprinted for CPLL in the past, you don't need to do it again this year.
- The easiest time to get fingerprinted will be at one of the evaluation days at our CPLL fields.
- If you miss the evaluation day, you can go to the Verify Group office - 262 E Hamilton Ave, Suite A, Campbell, CA 95008
5. Get approved by the verification director (Rebecca Thomas for Spring 2026 season)
- The verification director will review your documents and submit to the Board for final approval. The list will be updated weekly as needed.
