Youth soccer
Most youth soccer camps mean well but vet the wrong way — or only halfway. VolunteerBadge clears every coach and helper for $5 with biometric identity verification, and closes the four gaps that trip clubs up most.
Assistants, keeper trainers, and parent helpers spend just as much unsupervised time with players. Vet everyone with field access, not just the lead.
Familiarity is exactly what predators rely on. A documented check protects players and the club regardless of how well you think you know a volunteer.
A cheap name search misses people who give a false name. Identity verification ties the result to the actual person standing on your touchline.
Mail-in checks take weeks. Send phone-based invites the week before and watch your roster clear before the first whistle.
In most youth leagues, yes — clubs, parks departments, and the fields you book increasingly require a current background check on every coach and assistant before the season, and your insurer typically does too.
Coaches verify and consent from their phone, and most checks return same-day to 48 hours, so a full camp roster can be cleared in the days before opening.
Anyone with unsupervised access to players does — including parent volunteers running drills or driving to scrimmages. Each is a standard $5 check.
Screen every coach and helper the right way — $5 each, identity-verified, no subscription.
