October 15th Update: Thank you to those of you who were able to attend our virtual league meeting on October 14th. The registration period is now open. Teams have the choice of starting in December or January this season. Specific dates are available on the front page of the web site. Based on a vote of league members, at this time the limit on the number of attendees per player remains at 2, but children can now attend games. So 2 people per player.
We will continue to rely on guidance from the State of Ohio, the OHSAA, and local school districts on precautions that must be taken in order to run our league in the safest manner possible. Our COVID-19 operating guidelines have been approved by the departments of health in all counties that we operate in and we stand ready to help our member communities. We understand that with such a large and diverse league that there are a variety of opinions and thoughts on COVID-19 and steps that must be taken to minimize exposure to it. However, we must come together for the common good and abide by guidelines that have been well thought out by the State of Ohio, the OHSAA, and the local school districts where your children attend school. The viability and success of the league will depend on it for this season.Important Info

An email was sent out to all coordinators today with the following proposed dates for the upcoming season. We will offer three weeks of league play in December for those organizations that wish to start at that time. For everyone else, we will start the second weekend in January. (due to demand, we will start 7th-12th in December for those that are able) For teams starting in December we will try to schedule a typical number of games for the season (10 for rec/high-rec and 20 for athletic) and for those starting in January (8 for rec/high-rec and 14-16 for athletic). This is highly dependent on the amount of gym time available.
Please reach out with any questions you might have.
