All baseball/softball games for Tuesday 08/04 are canceled. This includes the Interleague Majors game in Sterling. Reschedule notices will be sent by league directors where applicable.
The Worcester Bravehearts are excited to announce a bonus third week of summer camp in 2020! This third week will take place from August 10-14 from 9AM-2PM every day at Doyle Field in Leominster, MA!
This past week the Governor of Massachusetts issued a new and increased classification for youth sports, and the required steps below to allow games and practices. Unfortunately, because of the current situation, we have implemented the following changes...please review carefully. These regulations are for all games of baseball and softball 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 now 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.
At the discretion of the parents, players can wear a mask when hitting, and while on base as a runner, if safe 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.
Holden Baseball has many opportunities for new volunteers. Please stop in at a Board Meeting on the First Tuesday of each month (September through June) at 7:00 PM at either the CRA Hit Center or Alden Labs.
