COVID-19 VACCINATION PROOF

Proof of vaccination for the COVID-19 is required by the City and County of San Francisco.

Those going through the SFRPD Volunteer Certification Process will need to present their proof of vaccination BEFORE they will be fingerprinted and so do not need to send it into the league.

Returning Coaches upload a copy of your vaccine card into your LeagueApp profile HERE
