Welcome to NELLS Coaches Information Page
We provide this page to help you as a parent of a NELLS player. You will find links and information pages here that we hope will help you find answers to some of the most common questions we receive throughout the year. We also offer ways for you to connect more with your child’s team and the greater league in general.
Just like any website, ours is continually updated to keep the information you need as up-to-date as possible. If you feel that there is any information or resources that is not currently on our site we would love to hear about it. We won’t know its missing unless we hear from you.
Help Us Help Them. Get Involved In NELLS
At NELLS we rely on a devoted collection of adult volunteers to help ensure that the league remains structured and runs smoothly. We are always looking for responsible and enthusiastic parents, family members, and friends to manage, support, and coordinate our teams, facilities, and activities. As a volunteer, you should have a keen interest in the safety, well-being, and overall development of all our girls.
All parents of children involved in NELLS are strongly encouraged to volunteer. As a parent, volunteer, you have the opportunity to spend quality time with your daughter in a safe, fun-filled environment. Oftentimes, parent and child social lives parallel each other. Volunteering allows your life and your child’s life to intersect on common ground, with shared interests and goals.

Requirements For Coaching At NELLS
- Have a great attitude. Having excitement for success and patience for struggling players is a must.
- Enjoy teaching the fundamentals of softball
- Attend NELLS Winter Clincs to gain first-hand knowledge of the best teaching practices.
- Have an open schedule from early April to late June that allows for 1-2 games per week and at least 1-2 practices times per week.
- As always softball experience is a big plus but we offer younger league manager spots that you can have little to no experience. The girls just want someone who is excited to work with them. We also have assistant coaching positions in almost every league level for volunteers that want to gain some experience before trying a manager position.
