How do I get started?

Simply update the areas with yellow backgrounds behind the information for Steps 1 through 4, for each field you use. Start at the top and work down through the steps. You may want to use your printed facility survey to review your fields before starting the online survey, so you have all your information gathered and ready to enter on the website.

What will the database show?

The database shows what we have previously entered for your league. In some cases, the forms will be blank, if you’ve never completed a facility survey in the past. Or it may be last year’s, and/or prior years’, facility survey information, whatever information we have for your league.

The main screen doesn’t have the correct information for my league. What do I do?

For the Charter Information, simply go to the “Modify Charter Information” blue link above the “City:” text field, and you can request a change for the information we have on your league. To the best of our ability, we have used the information provided from previous facility surveys, and will double-check the information requested to be changed before it is made on the online form, so it may take a few days to see this made “live”.

What does “multi-managed league” mean?

All leagues have unique charter numbers. But a league that shares a board of directors with another league, is considered “multi-managed” in terms of having two or three charters that the board operates. If your board governs more than one charter, you should note both (or all three) charter numbers on your facility survey so your governing board gets credit for each charter having submitted its survey.

I don’t see my name or the officer’s name I’m trying to put in “Step 1: League Officers”. What do I do?

Select “[new person]” from the drop-down menu on the “Choose a Contact:” and enter all contact information you have for this person. If the person has previously been a safety officer or league president, their name should show up on your list of contacts, and you can modify as needed for new addresses or phone numbers, etc.

I want to edit a previous year’s “Plans for Future Needs” or “Facility Survey” information. But the site won’t let me. What do I do?

The prior years’ information is static, just for your reference. If you want to make changes, go to the “Home” button and start from the “Edit”, “Update Plans” or “Answer Survey” button next to the current year’s information for the section you want to edit.

My league has new fields. How do I get a facility survey to enter the information?

You first must create the field in “Step 3: Field Dimension Data” by clicking “Add New Field”. Once the field has been created and saved, it will automatically show up in “Step 4: Field Survey”. Then you may enter the answers for it.

My league used to play on a field, but now we don’t. How do I show that?

If there isn't a delete button next to the field, it means we are using the field's information for our records. Ignore the field and don't enter any survey information in “Step 4: Field Survey” for the current year. Next year the field will not show up.

Why are answers given on the survey for everything except the inspections?

We auto-fill all prior year’s answers on “Step 4: Facility Survey” so only those features that have changed need be changed on your form. However, questions on lighting inspections are important for the safety of your players, and Little League requires every field playing under artificial lighting to be inspected every year to ensure they meet minimum standards for safe play, and again before any tournament games are played there. So you must do an annual inspection and verify when that occurred for each lighted field.
