What is Summer 2020 T-Ball all about?
- Based on AHS Guidelines Fish Creek will be able to off a T-Ball House League program where we can play games. We will have to follow the recommended guidelines and our T-Ball Division will be split into Cohorts.
Details on Cohorts:
- The 50-person cohort rules applies to players AND coaches within the group.
- Players and coaches must remain part of the same cohort for the entire season and may not be part of multiple cohorts. This means that if a coach wants to coach multiple teams (as many due) they may only pick one to be their cohort where they can break the physical distancing rule (without a mask).
- If a Division has more than 50 players and coaches, they will need to be divided in groups of no more than 50 and only play against teams/players from their own group.
- Physical distancing within a cohort will not need to be maintained during game play (essentially, they will be able to play games as they normally would).
- Physical distancing will need to be maintained when note playing (i.e. in dugouts/on benches).
- Separation from spectators and good hygiene practices will be in effect. No food permitted at the diamonds, this includes sunflower seeds.
Details on League Play and Team Formation?
- T-Ball is considered a developmental division. All Cohorts will follow FCLL's Modified rules currently outlined in our Spring House League Program (for more details please CLICK HERE).
- Because of the Cohort rules, FCLL will be capping its T-Ball Registrations.
- We would have teams of 9 players and 2-3 coaches each.
- Teams will play games on alternate weeknights, Monday through Thursday.
- Each Cohort would have their own designated field.
- Teams and Cohorts will be formed randomly with allowances given for Friend Requests.
- **Team sizes and number of teams in each cohort are subject to change based on registration numbers, City, Provincial and AHS Guidelines.**
- We are very fortunate to be offering this Summer Baseball Program. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and support with the program we will have.
