For the fall season, we are still under the youth sports guidelines provided by the Governor of Massachusetts. These guidelines apply to all games and practices at the CRA, Mountview, and Bubar (Senior Center) which are organized and run by our league.

Player Guidelines:

• All players, while on the bench, wear a cloth or paper mask. 
• All coaches must wear a mask. 
• Umpires will not be required to wear a mask, but will stay at least 6' away from the players on the field, and will put on a mask for any discussions with a coach.
• All players and coaches must have a mask on when the team is gathered in group chats with the team. 
• All players must wear a mask when hitting, and while on first base as a runner. 
• Player may wear a mask as a fielder if they choose to do so.

Spectator Guidelines:

• Only attend games of your child. This summer is different in that we ask that you do not come to the fields when it is not your family's game night. 
• We ask that you arrive no earlier than 20 minutes before start time, and promptly exit at the conclusion of the game.
• Fans are now required to wear a mask while at the field, social distancing or not, a mask must be worn.
• Despite the venue being outside, the request to wear a mask is important to helping to keep people safe, especially when talking to friends we see at the field. 
• As a board we also ask that you supervise your non-baseball/softball playing children at all times while at the field. 
• These above new procedures are part of the state direction on play.  If we can not follow the required direction, we risk having to stop the season.  Please help us to keep the games on and our population safe. 
• Pets will not be allowed at the field  
• We have created a player only area at the CRA fields using yellow caution tape for a bench area. Please do not enter this area.  Our coaches clean this area after each game, and we wish to keep things as clean as possible.
• Holden Baseball/Softball requests that immediate family only attend games.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation to help make the season successful and safe for all.
