Madison Youth Baseball & Fastpitch Softball
Over the last two weeks, we have all faced daily challenges beyond what any of us could have imagined. We respect and support the orders that have been given and appreciate all efforts being made to help keep everyone as safe and healthy as possible. Undoubtedly, we all hope for better days ahead and look forward to restrictions being lifted sooner rather than later. We remain optimistic that there will still be a recreation season and, after discussions with our community partners, have put in place the following provisions:
SOFTBALL
BASEBALL
T-BALL
While we understand the hesitation some have with registering due to the unknown, we ask that you please sign your child/children up by the above dates. It takes approximately 2-3 weeks to assemble teams, designate coaches and order uniforms after those dates, which would allow us to stay on-course with the amended schedule and start practices by the second week of May (depending on divisions). If we don't receive registrations until after the deadlines, our timeline will be affected and we will be further behind. In the event that the season is canceled, we will issue refunds for all registration fees paid.
These plans have been made with a best-case scenario in mind. We will continue to monitor the situation closely, adhere to any directives handed down and communicate any necessary revisions. The health and safety of our players and families is, and will always be, a top-priority.
SOFTBALL
- The registration deadline has been extended through 4/15/20
- Numbers are currently very low for all of our softball divisions - if we do not have enough players to form a team in any given division, and we hope that's not the case, girls will be offered the option to join a Perry team for their respective age level
- Games are tentatively scheduled to begin the week of 5/18/20 with the Northcoast Fastpitch Softball League and end mid-July
BASEBALL
- The registration deadline has been extended through 4/15/20
- Current numbers are lower than usual, though we expect to be able to field teams at every level
- Games are tentatively scheduled to begin the week of 6/1/20 and end by 7/31/20
- 10U, 12U and 14U teams will play against Perry and Concord
- 8U will likely play against Perry, as well as in-house games
T-BALL
- The registration deadline has been extended through 4/30/20
- Games will be played in-house and are tentatively slated to begin around the second week of June and end late-July
