GVLL Families
We remain in a holding pattern in terms of playing baseball this summer. The goal of this email is to give you an update on GVLL.
· GVLL is still hoping to playing baseball this summer.
· GVLL will follow the State guidelines for youth sports specific to social distancing, sanitizing and spectators
· GVLL is developing safety protocol based on plans developed by national and local youth sports programs.
This protocol will include but is not limited to:
o Social distancing of players during practices and when not on the field (games)
o Players wearing masks when not on the field/practicing.
o No sunflower seeds or eating allowed at practice or games. Spitting will not be allowed
o All adults at practice and “on the field” for games will wear masks
o Any shared equipment will be sanitized between uses
o Practice and game times will be scheduled to allow for social distancing when arriving and departing from the field.
o GVLL guidelines are required to be shared and approved by GV Park and Rec prior to any baseball activities.
· The timetable for the start of the season is unknown at this time. It is looking like practices could be allowed, with significant restrictions, sometime in June.
· Even if practices are allowed, it is possible that games may not be allowed
· The “season” would run through the month of July
· The volunteer requirement for families is being evaluated. A final decision has been made.
· Refunds of registration fees (minus the fee paid to Ngin when registering) and Dibs volunteer deposits are available to any family that request one.
