Coaching is and always will be an extremely important element of the Beth - Wood Baseball League (B - W) and we are very proud of all our Coaches – our Coaches are volunteers (Moms & Dads), unselfishly giving of their free personal time to teach our children this great game of baseball as well as to inspire them to become better individuals by instilling in them the spirit of good sportsmanship and teamwork. The quality & passion our Coaches have exhibited towards our program is second to none and it is because of them that our League has and continues to experience continued success throughout the years…

We provide our Coaches the opportunity to attend Clinics we try to schedule throughout the year to help them become better informed, more confident and learn successful / proven coaching techniques from others. If you and / or your spouse want to become a Coach in the B - W, you agree that you MUST have all the following requirements as MANDATED by Babe Ruth League (NO EXCEPTIONS) – these are all required BEFORE you will be allowed on the field with the children :

1. Have a current Babe Ruth League Coaches Certificate or MUST take the on-line Coaches Certifications Course offered through Babe Ruth League prior to the 2026 Season at a cost of $ 19.95 to you. Once taken, this Certification will be valid for as long as you remain part of the Babe Ruth program.
