Little League baseball is often cited as one of the highlights of growing up. That’s why so many former Little Leaguers return to High Park to “give back” by coaching the next generation of Toronto baseball players. Parent volunteers are also a critical part of the success of our Instructional and T-Ball programs. If you’re interested in coaching, please check the “Volunteer” box when registering your child, or reach out to us at [email protected] for more information.
Creating a safe and fun environment for learning and competing is integral to the High Park Little League community. Each of our coaches takes part in a police background screening and signs the High Park Coach’s Code of Conduct Document. They are also required to complete Respect in Sport training which continues to encourage fair play and is in line with High Park’s coaching philosophy of learning and fun over winning.
Concussion awareness is important at HPLL. Under Ontario’s Rowan’s Law, all sport organizations must confirm that parents have reviewed the age appropriate Concussion Awareness Resources before players can register/participate in sport. Click here to learn more.
High Park coaches apply Rowan’s Law protocols when any on field situation occurs where there may be the possibility of a concussion. HPLL’s Rowan’s Law – Coaches Concussion Code of Conduct provides clear guidance. You can read more on our process for what happens when someone experiences a concussion Rowan’s Law – Removal & Return to Sport Protocol.
If you would like to get involved with our teams, but don’t feel you are ready to coach, there are lots of other volunteer opportunities available from scoring games to setting up the diamonds before and after the games, to helping out at our regular clean up days, opening day ceremony and lots more. Please email us at [email protected] to register your interest for volunteer positions. Volunteers are also required to complete their Rowans Law training and police checks.
