Youth Volunteers (Ages 11-17) do not require a background check, but do need to complete the on-line and field training for referee.

All individuals older than 18 years of age will need to apply for a background check through Sterling Volunteers and pay the Sterling fee.  Our region will reimburse you the fee.  Simply email a copy of the payment receipt to [email protected].  The $25 fee covers a Level 2 background check, 

Registration Procedures

Individuals new to our program will go to the same Home Page and click on the “Register Now” button in the upper right corner of the web page.

Volunteers will end up in their account page, where you can/will volunteer for a role.  If you wish to volunteer for multiple roles, simply select multiple roles on your Volunteer tab..

All volunteers must go through the volunteer process each year in order to provide/verify/update your personal information, relationships with your children, acknowledge various waivers, and initiate background check..  The region will reimburse the membership fee expense.  Simply submit the payment receipt by email to [email protected].

PERSONAL AND CHILD WELLFARE CLEARANCES

All volunteers must process a background check each year.  PA child welfare clearance and personal PA State Police clearance are completed every five years.  Click on the Sterling application if you have had a PA clearance certification within the past 5 years, then upload the certificates when asked on the application

Sterling system will ask, Have you previously been screened for the Pennsylvania Neglect/Abuse Registry or Pennsylvania Child Abuse within the past 5 years? 
 
If you answer NO (that is, you do not have a hard copy of a child abuse clearance), please watch for an email from Sterling (subject line: Action Required to Complete Your Background Check) with a token and instructions on how to apply for a PA Abuse Clearance and submit it to Sterling.

If you answer YES (that is, you do have a current child abuse clearance), please scan the hard copy of your child abuse clearance upload it to the Sterling Site and send it to our regional Child Volunteer Protection Advocate (CVPA) at [email protected] for our records.

TRAINING REQUIREMENTS

Your volunteer registration fee provides access to AYSOU.org where you can log in and complete training for all roles you wish to perform, download various manuals and training documents, download a record of your training started and completed.  You can access AYSOU.org any time by logging into your account at Sports Connect and clicking on the AYSOU tab on you home screen.

All AYSO volunteers must complete Safe Haven, Concussion Awareness, and Cardiac (three separate trainings). All coaches and referees need to take the Laws of the Game module found under the Referee folder.  All coaches need to take age specific coach training modules found under the Coach folder.  These online courses are relatively brief but are very important to presenting a great season by ensuring you understand child protection requirements and basic safety procedures.  We will also provide field training for coaches and referees needed to put the online training in context and add strategy and helpful hints.

As noted above, all volunteers need to complete various training to know about your role and associated responsibilities.  If you have any questions as to which modules you need to complete, simply email [email protected] or [email protected]

Ensure you save your certificates of completion on your computer to upload if needed.  The record of completion will attach to your account automatically.  But having a copy will help if database problems occur.
