Spring 2020 - Season Suspended

March 13, 2020
Dear LVLL families:
With sobering disappointment, but with intent to always do what is in the best interests
of our families and the greater La Verne community, at the strong recommendation of
Little League International we are suspending our Spring 2020 season effective
immediately.
As so many of our daily lives are changing in the effort to minimize the spread of the
COVID-19 coronavirus, La Verne Little League is no exception. Though we all crave the
community and normalcy of watching our kids play a baseball game, the last thing any
of us want is for Pelota Park to become a vector for the virus.
Little League International has recommended that each of its 6,500 leagues suspend or
postpone the start of their season until April 6, so LVLL will follow that direction and
hope that conditions allow us to resume on that date. In addition we all ask that all
managers and coaches follow this instruction by not practicing or initiating any team
gatherings until April 6.
I think I speak for the entire Board of Directors when I tell you how much I wish we
weren't making this announcement today, but nothing is more important to us than the
health and safety of our players, volunteers and each of your families. We sincerely
hope that by suspending the season we are doing our part to make sure we can ALL be
back at the field when the season resumes.
We will continue to keep you informed regularly as new developments affecting the
league occur and welcome any questions you may have. I hope in the very near future I
can inform you we are clear to resume our season and play ball. In the meantime,
please keep your families safe and we will see you all back at Pelota Park soon!
