Umpire screening (Adult Umpires)
| |
Again for the 2022 season, adult umpires (18 and older) will have to complete additional requirements beyond certification in order to have their Baseball Ontario umpire card activated.
Umpire Checklist:
**If you opt to manage your screening through your local association, you will complete their Disclosure Form and submit your screening results (if needed) to them.
- A VSC only ever needs to be completed once, and thereafter a CPIC or EPIC will be required when the next screening is due in 3 years. Any returning volunteer with a clear VSC in the past is only required to obtain a CPIC or EPIC.
- Individuals born after February 28, 1986, (presently potential volunteers or employees under 35), do not need to complete a VSC, even if they are working with Vulnerable Individuals. (The date of birth belonging to the youngest person with a pardoned sexual offence is February 28, 1986.) Potential volunteers or employees under 35 still need to obtain an CPIC or EPIC if required by section 6 of this Baseball Ontario Screening Policy.
- Individuals may only obtain a VSC by visiting an RCMP office or police station, submitting two pieces of government-issued identification (one of which must have a photo), and completing any required paperwork. Fees may also be required. Fingerprinting may be required if there is a positive match with the individual’s gender and birth date.
- Umpires will fall into one of three risk categories (this is not the same as the level of umpire they are):
| Risk Level |
Description |
Requirements |
| Level 1 Risk: |
Umpires who are never alone with children or Vulnerable Individuals, and only interact on the field of play in the duty to the game |
