What are the responsibilities of a manager and a coach?
The team manager oversees the management of the team through the season. They are responsible for setting a practice schedule, developing a practice format, creating a linup card for every game, and ensuring the players get their minimum playing time in each game. Managers are the focal point of the team and must be committed to following through with the management of the team from mid-February to early-June. Time commitment varies by division. Managers need to commit to be at all practices and games. Managers must attend a pre-season coaching clinic provided by the league, and a manager’s meeting with the Division Coordinator. Managers must schedule and conduct a parent meeting prior to the first practice of the season. Managers are assisted by a volunteer team parent that helps with things like concession stand scheduling, fundraising events, uniform distribution, and picture day. Two assistant coaches, or three for T-Ball, Rookie, and Farm; are allowed on the field or in the dugout
