ACE Certification/Background Checks
As mandated by the ASA National Board of Directors, each 2009 Junior Olympic Championship Play team (includes all qualifiers and state tournaments) must have ACE certified personnel within the field of play/dugout in order to participate in Championship Play.
The ACE Certification includes a background check. It is highly recommended that all coaches associated with JO Teams complete the ACE Certification program. Contact your JO Commissioner for your local policies.
