Northampton Baseball Safety Protocols

Welcome to Northampton Township LL (NTLL) where the safety and well-being of our players is our top priority. We strive to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for children to learn and grow through the sport of baseball.

To ensure the safety of our players, coaches are required to complete First Aid, CPR, and AED training. This training equips our coaches with the necessary skills and knowledge to respond quickly and effectively in the event of an emergency.

In addition to coach training, we also adhere to strict safety guidelines and protocols, including regular equipment checks, field maintenance, and age-appropriate training.

We believe that by prioritizing safety, we can create a positive and rewarding experience for our young athletes and their families. Thank you for entrusting us with your child's development and for joining us in our commitment to safety.
