How to interact with umpires - sportsmanship, civility, request TIME before entering the field of play, one-on-one conversations, no across the field shouting, etc.
Any / all local rules. LBR on a BOB, especially if the BR rounds 1B. What is a "play" by F1. OBS / INT

Newer rules over the past few seasons
Pitching mechanics - double touch, etc., especially for a small rec leagues. Bad habits start here. Commonly misunderstood rules - sofftball myths - hands are not part of the bat - tie goes to the runner - must slide rule - about to recieve Lineup management: subs, DP/Flex (even though this is a rec league, this will help them to get to the next level.) Game management: - Communicating with umpires - Appeals If possible, offer optional on-field situations to visually demonstrate rules

How about - How many of you are going to read and know your league rules? It is amazing how many rec coaches never even look at their own league rules. In our local parks, the younger the age groups the more rules with over 40 in some TBall and PeeWee. How about this one, "No infielder is allowed to go to the outfield and retrieve the ball before an outfielder has made a play on the ball." In some leagues it states this without the next sentence. "The batter will be awarded 3B" In other words, no penalty. This rule alone can take 5 or 10 minutes to discuss at a coaches' meeting.
Good luck!
