Dear Spartan Baseball families,

With the recent extension of school closures being pushed to April 28th, we will not be able to start our practice and games in April as previously scheduled. As a program, our main concern is our players and families safety and health. Like everyone, our program is constantly making adjustments as new guidelines are released. We promise to do our best to keep you informed on our plans moving forward. Our hope is to still play a season, it may just be a “modified” season. We will continue to coordinate with the Westside Youth Baseball organization and keep you apprised of decisions that are made.

What we know right now:

1-Parent Meeting Postponed. New Date and Time TBD
2-SYB Coaches Meeting Postponed. New Date and Time TBD
3-Picture Day has been rescheduled to 5/17/2020-Raffle Tickets also now due 5/17/2020
4-New Raffle Drawing Location and Date TBD
5-JBO(3rd through 8th grade) season updates will be sent out as soon as we get them. As for now, it’s been postponed until 4/28/2020
6-WSYB Mandatory Coaches Meeting will be rescheduled. New Dates and Times TBD
7-Field Days for Groner and FV Postponed. New Dates and Time TBD

As you can see a majority of these dates and times have not been set due to the school/facility closures and uncertainty around further extensions.

A scenario that we think could play out is that the season could shift and extend further in to July or first of August, depending on when we are able to start. We recognize that this could impact your families summer schedules. If this was the scenario that WSYB moved forward with and your family would not be interested in playing deeper in to the summer months, please reach out to us as soon as possible so we can discuss your options.

Thank you for your support and patience as we do our best to serve you all. If you have any questions at all, please reach out.
