COVID-19 09/10/2020 Our Optimist families,
We are cautiously...
We are cautiously optimistic and we are ready to offer a few sports for our community. Please understand, we will have strict protocols in place that we must follow to make this as safe as possible. Should we see a breakout of COVID-19, we may have to cancel games or even the season, without the ability to offer refunds. The new normal season may be a little different, but we want out kids on these fields so we hope you can enjoy the time with your kids. We may ask, need, extra volunteers to make this work, so we hope you have the time offer us a few hours to help us make this work.
Softball and flag football is open for registrations and a fast start to their seasons- please see their home pages for details. Some may ask why not baseball, please understand the undertaking for 500+ kids is a hard test and the optimist board feels softball and flag football is our best opportunity to try and make this work, for now. Soccer in just a few months, is next and with so many participants and if we are successful, our spring season will be the full assortment of normal spring sports. We may see the resumption of our adult volleyball season too, in the coming months. We continue to register for cheerleading with competitions hopefully starting in the coming months.
Thank you, lets all lend a helping hand to make this enjoyable and safe!
