BTBA Parents, Guardians, & Players:

First and foremost, we hope everyone in our baseball community is staying safe and healthy through these difficult times. 

The BTBA Board of Directors continues to work with the Metro Baseball League and Minnesota state officials on a path back to playing baseball this season.  There are still many unanswered questions on how to proceed and recent local events have obviously pushed youth sports to a lower priority for the time being. 

We will continue to update you with the latest information via our home page and email communications as it becomes available.  In addition to these updates, you can review our 5/21 BTBA Board Meeting Minutes for recent proposals and the latest board discussions.  Updated news directly from MBL and the 2020 Safe Play: Back to the Diamond initiative can also be found on the Metro Baseball League home page.

As always, thank you for your patience and understanding.

Children should engage in usual preventive actions to avoid infection, including:

• Frequently Washing Hands with soap & water
• Utiliziing alcohol based hand sanitizers
• Avoiding others who are sick
• Staying up to date on vaccinations, especially influenza

For the upcoming tryout weekend, please have players stay home if they are showing signs of sickness.  Also remind players to limit sharing of equipment as much as possible.  Thankfully, infection among children is faily uncommon, but we each play a role in protecting ourselves and others from spreading any illness.
