Play baseball in BC · how it works
One player.
One Baseball BC iD.
Every season after.
Your player registers once. Their association, their coach, a tryout at fifteen, a move across the province, an umpiring job at seventeen — all of it reads from the same profile. Nothing you typed gets typed again.
-
Start with your community
Pick where you live. The directory shows every association that registers players there, with a link we've checked.
-
Register once
The first time, you create your player's Baseball BC iD: name, birthdate, a guardian, and the Safe Sport consent every player in BC signs. Your association's season is a registration on that iD — not a second form on a second site.
Siblings share your guardian login. Each player has their own iD.
-
Play the season
Your association builds its roster from the iD. The coach sees the same profile you entered — emergency contact, medical note, pitch-count history — without asking you to fill it in again. Rules for your player's division are one chapter of one handbook, not a PDF on a separate site.
-
Try out for more
Team BC identification camps, Aces, a BC Premier Baseball League club at high-school age — each one is a registration on the same iD. Eligibility (age, residence zone) is checked from the profile, so you find out before you pay, not after.
-
Move, switch, or come back
A transfer between associations is a status change with a date — agreed by both, recorded once. Your player's history (seasons, certifications, pitch counts) comes along. Take a year off and the iD waits.

Coach or umpire later
At sixteen your player can take the umpire clinic; at eighteen, coach. Those certifications — NCCP for coaches, BCBUA for umpires — attach to the same iD. One person, one record, from rally cap to the plate.

Safe, and seen to be safe
Safe Sport follows the person, not the league. A suspension recorded in one association is visible to every association the iD touches. The discipline registry is fed by the iD, so nobody has to email a list — and a parent can ask one question in one place.

Who can see what
Your player's information is processed by a database. A chat program never sees a roster. Here is exactly who reads which part of the iD.
| Who | Sees | Never sees |
|---|---|---|
| You, the guardian | Everything on your player's iD, and every season registered on it | Other players' records |
| Your association | Profile, consents, the roster it builds, transfers it's party to | Seasons with other associations beyond what eligibility needs |
| The coach | Roster, emergency contact, medical note, pitch counts for their team | Guardian login, payment details, other teams' rosters |
| Baseball BC | Counts, eligibility, certifications, the discipline registry | Day-to-day team communication |
| The platform vendor | What it must to run the service, under contract to Baseball BC | Anything for its own use |
| A chatbot or AI model | Nothing. There isn't one. | Your player's roster, ever |
