RASA Opening Day brought some tough weather/field conditions. Games were cancelled but we still got to have our Opening Ceremony. Thank you to our Opening Day Coordinators Karen & Jen, and thank you to one of our sponsors Chick-fil-A Quakertown for making an appearance to support the girls! Also thank you to last years Volunteer of the Year winner Brad Christman and his daughters (Tessa/Taylor) for contributing to the 2024 Spring season opening pitch!
A very long day at the softball fields for our PA Panthers travel teams concluded with the 11U team winning the 11U Spring Spectacular Championship & the 12U team finishing runner-up in the 12U Bracket. The tournament was a one-day tournament at our home fields in Quakertown. Congratulations to all the girls!!
RASA has instituted the following background check procedure for all adults volunteering as coaches, assistant coaches, and for any activity that requires direct and routine contact with children participating in a RASA activity. The following three (3) items are required for all RASA volunteers:
1. Pennsylvania State Police Criminal History Record: This document can be obtained online at https://epatch.pa.gov/home
2. Pennsylvania Child Abuse History Clearance: This document can be obtained online at https://www.compass.state.pa.us/CWIS/Public/Home
3. A copy of your Driver’s License (or another State / Federal ID with picture) showing your current address (must match the address on both of your background checks)
These background checks are currently offered online for free. Criminal History and Child Abuse records are considered valid for 5 years. However, RASA may request a copy of any / all of these three (3) items (State Criminal, PA Child Abuse Clearance, State Identification) from you at any time.
All volunteers must submit the three (3) documents before any RASA activities commence.
