New Coach Registration Process

Fingerprint Days will be separate from Workshop Days.  New Coach Workshops will be held virtually.

1. Bring a completed Church Volunteer Live-Scan form (link) to the scheduled appointment along with a valid government-issued photo ID. A driver’s license is preferred. Passports and other IDs are accepted but may take longer to process.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/teamsnap-tournaments/id1127506805

Download the App

• Go to the App Store (iPhone) or Google Play Store (Android).
• Search for TeamSnap Tournaments and download the app to your device.

Register with Your Coach Email Address

• Once downloaded, open the app.
• Register using the email address you provided for coach communications.

Search for "West Diablo CYO Basketball"

• After registering, search for West Diablo CYO Basketball in the app.
• Once found, favorite the league to easily access it in the future.

Find Your Team

• Search for your team by Boy or Girl, Grade level, American or National division, and your coach’s last name.
• Once you’ve located your team, mark it as a favorite.

View Your Team's Schedule

• After favoriting your team, you can now view the full schedule and any updates directly in the app.
• You can favorite multiple teams across the league.

Referee Payments:  With certain exceptions (noted below), each team (you and your opponent) pays the referees cash: $35(2nd - 5th grade games) or $40 (6th - 8th grade games).  Head coaches will receive a check from their parish to reimburse you for these fees at the onset of the season.  Note that games will not begin until the referees are paid.  

Further, games cannot be rescheduled.  If you are unable to field a team and must forfeit, you still need to go to the scheduled gym and pay the refs.

Scorekeeping/Scoreboard:  Each team must have a volunteer to either maintain the scoresheet or run the scoreboard/clock.  Suggest that you determine in advance who among your parents will do this for you.  Also, you might want to consider pre-filling your roster on a score-sheet.  Please list your players in jersey number order (lowest to highest).

Pre-game Prayer:  Prior to the game, each team (players and coaches) gather at center court for prayer, most typically, the Lord’s Prayer.  We’ve been asked to encourage players to begin the prayer.

Uniforms: Standard convention is to wear light jerseys when designated as the home team and dark jerseys when designated as the away team.
