Jos\u00e9 Soriano supports new regulations for youth baseball development in DR<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

League President Jos\u00e9 Soriano has expressed his firm support for the recent regulatory measures implemented for baseball academies and leagues in the Dominican Republic. With a track record of over 18 years training talent from the Olympic Center, Soriano believes that any initiative aimed at strengthening the safety, health, and comprehensive development of young athletes is a positive step for the future of the sport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Priority in safety and medical attention<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the central points of Soriano’s analysis is the need to guarantee efficient emergency protocols within the playing fields. Based on experiences observed abroad, where the presence of emergency units is a constant in sports facilities, the leader emphasized the urgency of raising local standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

Here, if a boy gets hit or suffers an injury, we often have to rely on improvised transport to the hospital. Having ambulances and trained medical personnel at the stadiums is not a luxury, it is a necessity to protect the lives of our children.<\/p>\nJos\u00e9 Soriano<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Organization and transparency in the system<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Regarding the creation of a national registry of leagues and academies, the sports leader valued the measure as a key mechanism for transparency. According to Soriano, the formalization of coaches, referees, and training centers will allow for more effective supervision, helping to identify entities operating outside legal frameworks and fostering an environment of greater prestige for Dominican baseball.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Challenges in prospect training<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Despite his support for oversight, Soriano called on the authorities to understand the operational reality of those who work from the grassroots level. He highlighted that the training process is a task that requires a considerable investment of resources, time, and constant effort over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Holistic well-being:<\/strong> Strong rejection of the use of prohibited substances that put the health of minors at risk.<\/li>\n
  • Sports ethics:<\/strong> Promotion of an environment where success is sought through appropriate and healthy practices.<\/li>\n
  • Future vision:<\/strong> Support for regulation as long as the main focus is the proper development of the young baseball player and their family well-being.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The leader concluded by reaffirming that his support is unconditional for any measure that promotes a safer, more organized, and professional baseball, provided that the integrity of the formative process experienced by thousands of Dominican children and young people on their path to professionalism is respected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
