COVID19

Normally at this time we are into baseball and softball seasons with grass and clay stains filling us with the reminders of fun and glories both new and old. Tales get passed around the dinner table (whenever we can find time between games and practices), classrooms, and work places of miraculous catches, impressive hits, and fumbled plays that either made or broke our game (and our hearts).

With COVID19 altering plans all over the country, our little neck of the woods has been fairly lucky. We live in a region that most can go outside without immediately encountering another human, some able to go out with barely a glimpse of neighboring homes. Many of us even have yards in which we can play a game of catch or take a few swings at the ball.

As of right now we are carrying on with the tournament and derby as planned. With this being said, I do have to perform my due diligence and ask that (at least for now) please don’t start planning team practices or team gatherings. I know that I personally am itching to get out and do things, but I would rather react with excess caution now and find we were overzealous in our preparedness actions than to find out that we could have done more and caused our families sickness and our summers to be cancelled.

So to the point of this post….  Please use common sense and good judgement as we start preparing for this year tournament. I certainly would be very upset if we had to cancel because stay at home orders or gathering limits ended up pushed to the end of July.

I hope to see you all very soon! Stay safe!
