Requires criminal history record background checks on certain volunteer sports personnel.

This bill requires criminal background checks for volunteer coaches, managers, and officials with youth sports teams (members under 16 years old) in New Jersey. It mandates that teams request free background checks through the state police, using fingerprint and name checks, with volunteers providing written consent. Teams must review any criminal history found but cannot automatically disqualify applicants who show clear evidence of rehabilitation. The Department of Community Affairs will manage the process as a central clearinghouse for background check results.
