Player Agents Role

The role of the player agent in the Little League program is one of the most important to the successful operation of a local league. The volunteer who elects to serve as the player agent of the league takes on an exacting assignment, but one which offers rewards in the satisfaction of a well balanced league. The player agent assists the league president in carrying out the important responsibility of establishing and maintaining the eligibility of player personnel. However, the final responsibility for the qualification of player candidates and league personnel resides with the president. In general, the player agent represents the league president in the supervision of the player selection system or draft, maintains complete player records, trading and replacements, eligibility and team rosters.
