Membership

About 

The Coaching Playbook will bring a new form of membership to baseball and softball in the UK - the Coach Membership. Qualified coaches who have completed the required coach training, safeguarding, and DBS check are eligible to register as a Coach Member.

The Coach Membership is designed for anyone actively coaching baseball or softball in the UK, whether you're coaching beginners, clubs, teams, leagues, youth programmes, or high-performance athletes. By joining this coaching community, you’ll gain access to resources, opportunities, and support to grow your knowledge, develop your coaching practice, and stay connected to the latest in coaching across the UK.

Why become a Coach Member?

Professional Recognition within the Sport(s)

The Coach membership is recognised by BaseballSoftballUK (BSUK), the British Softball Federation (BSF) and the British Baseball Federation (BBF), demonstrating that you are a qualified, vetted, and accountable coach. It affirms your credibility and shows clubs, players, and parents that you meet national standards.

Safeguarding and Legal Compliance

Membership ensures that you are up to date with safeguarding training and DBS checks, helping protect the welfare of young and vulnerable athletes and ensuring compliance with UK sporting regulations.

Insurance Coverage

Coach Members are covered by public liability insurance through their membership—an essential layer of protection for both coaches and clubs in the event of accidents or disputes.
