Coaching clinics and SafeSport training

Coaching clinics
We have poster the first round of coaching clinics on our website which will begin at the end of March. There are a wide variety of courses which are being offered all online. CLICK HERE to see the list of currently scheduled coaching courses.

Baseball Nova Scotia and SafeSport
BNS is pleased to promote new training for coaches to become more educated in offering a safer environment for our athletes. Developed by the Coaching Association of Canada, the training will help anyone involved in sport identify and prevent situations of maltreatment.

The new SafeSport training is free, and available at https://safesport.coach.ca/ .

The NCCP SafeSport training will be mandatory for all coaches in the province. Please note, this is a multi-sport course, and will be applied to all sport. If you have already completed it as a requirement for another sport, you will not have to take it again.

Associations will also be responsible for ensuring their coaches have completed Criminal Record Checks. BNS will be communicating further information on tracking and supports in our March update.

Announcements from Baseball NS

Bluenose League
Unless current public health guidelines change we will be offering the Bluenose League this summer. During the off season a group of coaches and participants from past seasons in the Bluenose League met to review the league and it’s structure. There are a number of changes which will come into effect this season to better align the league with Long Term Athlete Development models and the feedback from our members. NEW FOR 2021 – We will offer a 14U Girls division as well as a 12U Girls division, a full list of changes can be foundHERE.
