The Seneca Valley North Athletic Association requires either one of two types of clearances for individuals involved with child-related association activities. One is a security clearance check for all coaches and assistant head coaches; the other is a background disclosure statement specifically for volunteers involved with team activities.

Individuals not completing their respective security clearance will not be permitted to coach or come in contact with children during league or other team activities. [These clearances are separate from the Code of Conduct Form that all parents must sign.]

For Coaches and Assistant Head Coaches:

Beginning in 2012, security clearances for coaches will be obtained online via https://honesta.screening.services/mvp-o/v09/orderView.cfm?ordertype=swifthireopen&ucid=911&ugid=E0326446-BFC5-4B10-B1FD-B6098055FBEF&pid=459&pgid=B8832303-3F5D-47C7-A324-13048808E1DF

The online application process takes about two minutes. Once an individual completes the application process, SVNAA will be notified and will receive an email letting us know if the applicant has passed the security check. Once the association has the security clearance, the individual will be permitted to start participating with his team.

All head coaches must apply and pass the security check. If the team has an assistant head coach, that individual must also apply and pass the security check as well.

Beginning March 24, coaches and assistant head coaches will not be permitted on the field with their team until SVNAA has received their security clearance approval. There will be no exceptions to this requirement.

If you have any questions, please contact any SVNAA board member.

For Team Volunteers:

SVNAA requires all team volunteers who may come into contact with children during league and game activities to submit a Volunteer Disclosure Statement. Individuals not completing this form will not be permitted on the field or in the dugout during games or practices.

The purpose of this requirement is to make every reasonable effort to exclude any adult with a legally documented history of child abuse/molestation -- or any other conviction or record -- helping insure a safe and secure environment for children participating in SVNAA activities.

There is no fee charged for completing this form.

Individuals should submit completed forms to the team head coach before participating in any team-sponsored activity.
