Team Parent Coordinators:

A Team Parent’s primary role is to help the Manager coordinate the team communications and logistics so that he/she can focus on coaching.

Training slides for the Spring season are provided above for Team Parents to review ; policies and procedures change from season to season so please check with your Team Parent Coordinator for the most updated information.

Team Parents should assist their Managers in assigning the team’s volunteer positions. Northwood Little League is managed and run all by volunteers.  It is important to ask for everyone to help and do their part to make the league successful. Parents can pay a volunteer opt-out fee (per player enrolled) at Registration only. Everyone else must fulfill volunteer duties or they will pay a fine to the League. 

Team Parents are required to undergo a background check. Any questions about team background checks should be directed to the Compliance Officer at [email protected]. 

Uniforms will come pre-numbered and with last names for Spring Ball. For Fall, the uniforms come pre-numbered without names so you and your Coach will need to distribute them based on size.  

• Hats can be embroidered with last name, number or both. Please see the flyer under “Resources and Forms” section named “Hat Embroidery” for instructions and prices. 

• Jerseys can be personalized with last name. Please see form under “Resources and Forms” section named “Jersey Personalization Form” for instructions and prices. 

Team Parents should set up a Team Management app to track games, practices, other events, as well as Player Availability. It should include a team roster with parent contacts for emergencies. NWLL recommends using Sports Engine, as all games and rosters will be pre-loaded by the League. This may change from season to season so please check with your Team Parent Coordinator for the most updated information. 

Lower Division teams usually make a team banner in the Spring. Please see flyer under “Resources and Forms” section named “Team Banners” for instructions and special Northwood Little League coupon codes. 

Upper Division teams have additional duties. Please see the  Training Slides above to learn about those responsibilities.
