RE: Oak Lawn Baseball & Softball 2020 Spring/Summer Season Update

Hello Oak Lawn Baseball & Softball Families:

The Oak Lawn Baseball and Softball Executive Board continues to meet regularly to discuss the Spring/Summer 2020 season. Our number one goal is to provide a safe and fun environment for boys and girls to learn and play baseball and softball.

With this in mind, we continue to examine and discuss new information and mandates from the Governor’s office as they become available. Most recently, Restore Illinois, a phased approach to reopen the state of Illinois, was unveiled on May 5, 2020.  As a board, it is our responsibility to determine where our league fits in this approach. Collectively, we feel that OLB&S will be able to safely begin baseball and softball practices and games at our Oak Lawn school and park district facilities when the Northeast Region enters Phase 4 - Revitalization. While a date for this has yet to be determined, OLB&S is hopeful to move into this phase in June or early July 2020.

At this time, OLB&S has every intention to provide our players a full season of ball, albeit delayed, while staying within the framework of the Governor’s Restore Illinois plan. The health and safety of our players, coaches, fans and everyone involved is our number one priority. We will continue to keep you updated with our plans as they become clearer in the future.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to any of the respective board members via phone or email, provided below.

Stay safe,

Oak Lawn Baseball & Softball Executive Board
