COACHING

​Welcome to the Baseball NSW Coaching page:
In July 2020, Baseball Australia revised their coach accreditation system, and integrated the USA Baseball Certification courses A, B and C nationally. As a result Baseball NSW updated our Coach Accreditation, with the USA Baseball Certification being a component of the BNSW accreditation requirements.
 
Coach Accreditation is an obligatory requirement of both Baseball Australia and Baseball NSW. This requirement applies to coaches, assistant coaches and “specialist” coaches.

There are 3 levels of accreditation all of which have a practical component.

Level A accreditation
Entry level baseball, all non-player pitch baseball (T-ball, machine, or coach pitch baseball).
​
Level B accreditation
All player pitch baseball from Little League minors to senior (adult) baseball, including assistant coaches.

Level C accreditation
Representative coaches, LL Majors up to and including State League, and State Teams. 
​
Legal Responsibility
A coach has a legal responsibility, owing a duty of care to all participants under his/her care, which cannot be avoided. Being an accredited coach acknowledges awareness of that responsibility, and indicates that certain steps have been undertaken to attain a specific level of knowledge, with a level of confidence and ability.
