You may sign up to volunteer in two ways:

  • Anytime during the year by emailing RLYB at info@redlandyouthbasketball.org.

Volunteers will receive role assignments before the season begins.


Clearance Requirements

All volunteers must complete Pennsylvania background checks as required by state law and West Shore School District policy. Clearances must be valid and approved before volunteering. Clearances must be less than 5 years old at the time of submission.


Required clearances:

  • PA Child Abuse History Clearance
  • PA Criminal Background Check
  • FBI Fingerprinting or PA Volunteer Affidavit (based on residency)


FBI Fingerprinting vs. Volunteer Affidavit 

Volunteers who have not lived in Pennsylvania for the past 10 consecutive years must complete FBI Fingerprinting.
