BBA Updated Policies 01032016

Background Check POLICY: The Board reserves the right to exclude a coach from
participating in the assessment, draft and coaching in the absence of a signed
background check. The League Directors will email a background check form to the
prospective coach WHILE on the phone with prospective coach to speak with them
about coaching and letting them know the date of the assessment and draft. The
League Director can tell the prospective coach that he MUST email it or fax it back to
the President prior to coming to the draft.
Background Check POLICY: When a Background Check Report comes back with an
Alert and derogatory information about a potential coach, the President has the
authority, obligation and discretion to withdraw that coach from coaching this
season. The President makes this determination subjectively based on the type of
criminal charge and the time that has spanned since the alleged violation
occurred. To protect the anonymity of the coach in question, the President has no
need to get further BBA Executive Board or BBA Board of Directors approval. The
BBA nor the President can share in writing the findings of the vendor performing
the background check and is not obligated to do so since the Background Check was
paid for by BBA.
Score Book & Score Board Compensation POLICY: BBA will compensate a qualified
teenager or adult $10 per person per game to keep the scoreboard and scorebook.
Draft POLICY: If a player played on the previous seasons All Star team in the same
age grouping then he has to be a 1st Round Draft Pick. If a player played on the
previous seasons All Star team in a below age grouping then he cannot be drafted
any lower than the 5th Round. The League Director will keep track of the previous
season's All Stars on a spreadsheet provided by the President and send the report to
the President post-draft for retention.
Draft Trade POLICY:
This year we will keep track of ALL trades during and after the draft so as to
determine later if any of the trades resulted in a "stacked" team. The League
Director will keep track of all trades on a spreadsheet provided by the President
with the following information: Players name, Draft Number, Round Placed,
Coaches Name, Traded For, Players Name, Draft Number, Round Placed, Coaches
Name. The League Director will give this sheet to the President post-draft for
retention.
Draft POLICY: For the Boys 15/18 league, each team is allowed to lock in both the
Head Coach and the Assistant Coaches' sons and one additional player due to
"carpool".
Draft POLICY: For the Girls 9/10, 11/12 and 13/18 leagues, each team is allowed to
initiate post-blind-draft even round trades in order to get the girls on the same team
that want to play together. This is being allowed due to our girls numbers being so
low and the impression being that the girls are registering to play in order to play
together. Post-blind draft is defined as after all of the grids are full but before
anyone leaves the room. No post-blind-draft trades after the coaches have left the
room.
DISCPLINARY POLICY:
Any player caught committing a crime will be suspended from league play (BBA,
GRABB, GBL) for an amount of time approved by the BBA Board. Any further
incidents may result in permanent suspension from the BBA and associated leagues.
