• The welfare of the children is paramount. Young athletes have a right to expect appropriate management, support, personal and social development with regard to their involvement in all levels of athletics.

• Unless in case of emergency, no child should be transported in your vehicle.
• All incidents of suspicious activity and allegations of abuse will be taken seriously and responded to swiftly and appropriately.

All PAL volunteers are required to be fingerprinted before they begin volunteering. Please contact PAL to schedule an appointment 408-615-4701.
