2020 Season Message to VMBA Members (due to COVID-19)

UPDATED: MAY 1, 2020

Dear Members

Vancouver Minor Baseball Association is hopeful that there will be baseball played this year, but no timeline has been set for starting the season.  VMBA is following the direction of provincial health experts who still require physical distancing to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.  All Vancouver sports fields remain closed to organized sports.  If these restrictions are lifted in time to organize a baseball season VMBA will be prepared to get the season started.   Our neighbouring baseball associations agree that the top priority is to get all the kids playing as soon as it is safe to do so.

In our last update to members it was noted that the refund deadline had been moved to May 1 ^st. It also said that families could use their 2020 registration fees as credit for the 2021 Spring Season if baseball is cancelled this year.  VMBA has changed this policy to better address the possibility of a late start to baseball this year.  If baseball is cancelled all families will be given a full refund beginning July 1 ^st.

Please continue to stay safe and healthy.

Also exciting news for 5U Blastball & 7U Rally Cap - Both coach's Nadia & David have agreed if your parents are willing & all of the above organizations say it would be safe to do so that they will for the first time ever push these programs past what would be your children's typical school term in order to give them the same about of time they would had if we would have started April 4 because of the current situation.

Please stay healthy, wash your hands & practicing social distancing.
LET'S FLATTEN THE CURVE!
