Tri County Fastpitch League of Minnesota Teams
2012 teams will not be posted until after the April Tri County League Meeting
I'm a new coach what is my next step? Here is a brief list of action items you need to do for Tri County. Your association may have specific things to do as well.
| Tri County Checklist |
|---|
| Refer back to coaches corner page often! Most questions are answered there. |
| Create and NGIN account- Directions on the > TEAM tab homepage > Getting Started 2012 < once completed add your username to your team registration form. |
| **FYI, Your NGIN account stays with you forever AND with ALL NGIN sports** |
| E-mail web master to obtain editing access to my team page IF coaches were selected after registration. |
| Edit Team Page and personalize for your team, add team logo, pictures etc. |
| Enter "my contact" information. Priority! |
| Enter my team manager and/or assistant coaches information if you have one. |
| Enter roster on Tri County- This is used for tracking on-line stats only. This is meant to be fun for the players! |
| Go to the NAFA youth web site to add my "Official NAFA Roster" On-line **This is mandatory for the league and for any tournament you are participating in. Including Tri County, MMFL State and NAFA Nationals |
| Add my HOME field location and URL on my game schedule. *This only takes 5 minutes at the beginning of the season. i.e. RCF #1. It will save you a lot of calls and e-mails. |
| If I am the HOME team I need to enter both games box scores within 24 hours. After that any team can enter scores. |
| Tri County plays by the NAFA Rules. Rule books were given to all coaches. |
| Tri County specific rules are found on the Tri County web site and in the Scorebook provided to me at the start of the season. |
| In the event of a rain out or any cancellation, notify MY associations umpire coordinator (or designated contact person) ASAP inorder to cancel the umpire. If you don't know this contact your traveling director. Most assignors are listed in the score book too. |
| NEW starting in 2011, all coaches and officials must be trained in concussion awareness. On the Tri County home page there is link. This is mandatory. |
| What to bring to the Tri County Qualifier: A signed copy of your roster and your players birth certificates. Gate fee and balls are part of the league fee. |
| What to bring if your team advances to the MMFL State Tournament: A $100.00 gate fee made payable to the host field, a signed copy of your roster and your players birth certificates |

Getting Started 2012
Coaches, the first thing you'll notice new to the 2012 team pages is that I have created a team template to get you started. Minimally all you have to do is to update your contact information by clicking on the edit button. However, if you want to be more creative you can edit your team page anyway you like.
If you don't have an account yet please follow these directions:
All of you need to go to The Tri County website www.tricountyleaguemn.com If you coached last year and had an NGIN account you are all ready set up. If you are a new coach/user you need to create an account. Or if you have an existing NGIN account through any other sport just use that login and password to log in. After you have joined, please send an email to tbye@tricountyleaguemn.com so Tom knows your registered.
Make sure to include in your e-mail:
Name
Association
Team Name
Age level coaching
Thank you
