Calling all Volunteers!

IMPORTANT – MUST READ FOR ALL MANAGERS, COACHES AND TEAM PARENTS. According to PA State Law, which was implemented after July 1, 2015, all managers, coaches and team mom’s need to submit/provide the following forms to the local little league:

  • Background Check Signature Form
  • State Police Criminal Record Check
  • PA Child Abuse Clearance
  • Newville Little League Volunteer Application (found above)
  • New for 2025 Abuse Awareness Training

Please download the PDF document that summarizes the requirements and provides hyperlinks to the relevant websites that you need to use to get these forms. All of these forms are free for volunteers. Make sure you submit the forms as a volunteer. We need to get these done ASAP as we are really not allowed to work with the players until we provide these documents to the league. The state police criminal record check and the background signature form can be attained immediately. The child abuse clearance will take a few days, maybe a week, to process. Download the PA State Little League background check signature form (PDF). These clearances are good for 5 years. Make sure you save the PDF’s that come up so you can use them for future years. Additional forms and publications are available at the official Little League web site.
