As these requirements by Browse to Save">continue to trickle in, we feel compelled to share what we know with certainty. Coaches, trainers, parents, and/or players will receive direct emails from the league(s) they are participating in with their own requirements. Some league members already have. The goals of this letter is to provide our membership with a broad overview of what will be occurring, and connect our membership with the resources and information they need if they want to learn more independently.
