Hello Saratoga Little League Families -

We just wanted to give you a quick update - more details will come in the following weeks, but this will get us going!

*Playoff Schedule TBD

COVID-19 Related Guidelines

Saratoga Springs Little League detailed guidelines will be released soon, but here are the highlights:

  • Masks - Will my athlete need a face covering? Short answer, only if you feel he/she needs one. Athletes will adhere to new dugout rules to maintain a safe social distance from other players. For anyone inside the ballpark, it is recommended that you wear a face covering if you are unable to maintain a safe social distance from others.
  • Spectators - How many people can come watch? This is your Little League.  If Grandma wants to come watch, then come on in! It is recommended that everyone bring their own chair and maintain a safe social distance. Be smart, be safe.
  • Disinfecting/Cleaning - there will be increased disinfecting of the concession stand and bathroom.  All players should bring and use their own equipment!  Sharing is not caring in this case.

The link below has a lot of great information regarding COVID-19 regulations and Return To Play policy. It’s from Little League and it's one of the documents (along with CDC documents) we are using to develop our league policies.  Check it out! https://www.littleleague.org/downloads/best-practices/
