SPORTSMANSHIP
Sportsmanship is an important part of our organization because we believe we should strive to develop strong character in our children by teaching fair play, discipline, and mannerly behavior. Managers and coaches as the adults in our Youth Leagues should be the ones who are setting the example for strong character in their players.

Child Protection Policy
Protecting children from abuse of any kind is a responsibility that we must all undertake.
First and foremost, child abuse, whether physical or emotional, will not be tolerated by any official, board member, manager, coach, or any volunteer or employee of the IAB
Any child abuse discovered must be reported to the appropriate authorities.
The objective of the IAB is to foster a safe and positive environment for children and young people to participate in Israel Baseball activities.
Israel Association of Baseball is committed to ensuring that the safety, welfare, and well-being of children and young people are maintained at all times during their participation in activities run by the IAB.
The Israel Association of Baseball aims to promote a safe environment for all children and to assist all staff, officials, coaches, members, and volunteers to recognize child abuse and to follow the appropriate notification procedures when reporting alleged abuse.
If you become aware of any instance of abuse of a child participating in any IAB activities, please give a full report to the IAB, in addition to any reports required by law.
