want be able to have playoff tournament, would have to many people there, would need to have playoff series ,Love the idea! But with the guidelines today...Some teams will struggle if only 50 people are allowed in the facility....so basically no fans just the teams and umps...and they can't have gate money.
who is interested in having senior team? who is interested in having jr team ?This will be a league with structure in place of American Legion Baseball this summer. There will be Junior and Senior teams.
well teams have to play in the same area as they did last year.? wouldn't want a area with just a few teams and another area with 20 teams or more. or only 3 areas have teams.Who will be the commissioner for the state? I had contact from Area 1 saying they had 11 teams. I'd like to know every team. I've been asked to do a rankings.
The make up of the league will be past Area III teams. As in the past, there will be nothing prohibiting playing teams from other regions.well teams have to play in the same area as they did last year.? wouldn't want a area with just a few teams and another area with 20 teams or more. or only 3 areas have teams.
I can not answer that question. This is not state driven.are all 4 area going field teams ?

Of course nothing is happening without restrictions being lifted. I understand the Governor may announce some things today at his 3pm news conference.

For sure June 30 without any additional hiccups.Based on the Governor’s timeline today and Greg Suire’s timeline in the article, it’s gonna be tight. I don’t see gatherings with over 50 until mid-July at best.
well mid July be to late to start ? if they start that late they may have let the top 2 teams in each area go to the state tournament without a area playoff or have 16 team state tournament (top 4 teams during regular season in each area)Based on the Governor’s timeline today and Greg Suire’s timeline in the article, it’s gonna be tight.

100% correctThe MAIN problem I see is finding fields to play the games?
may need to play day games , the sunlight may kill the virusThis will be a league with structure in place of American Legion Baseball this summer. There will be Junior and Senior teams.
3 different states involved with this league, I am sure it makes things much more complicated.Coastal Plains League postponed their season until July 1. Usually start end of May. Starting then will surprise me.
That’s a good point. Until all three agree, it makes it even more complicated.3 different states involved with this league, I am sure it makes things much more complicated.

The city owned fields in Thomasville and Lexington, like all of their recreation facilities, are closed indefinitely. Articles in the High Point Enterprise and Lexington Dispatch forecasting a start date of June 1. Won’t happen.The MAIN problem I see is finding fields to play the games?
are school fields available ?The city owned fields in Thomasville and Lexington, like all of their recreation facilities, are closed indefinitely. Articles in the High Point Enterprise and Lexington Dispatch forecasting a start date of June 1. Won’t happen.
Organizational meetings in Thomasville scheduled for May 2nd, then postponed until May 9th. Neither will happen as the facility won’t reopen for at least six weeks per the Governor’s three phase plan.
Seems like this effort needs some organization. It’s commendable, but articles like these damage its credibility.
No. In Thomasville, the school plays at Finch Field, owned by the city. It’s also the home of the Post 87 American Legion jr. and sr. teams and the CPL Hi-Toms. It’s closed for the foreseeable future.are school fields available ?
1955, how many of those fields you got in your county? Can’t think of any in my County.might need to play on field privately own ,, not owned by the taxpayers,
i am sure some legion teams own their baseball field1955, how many of those fields you got in your county? Can’t think of any in my County.
Don’t know about all leagues, but most Coastal Plains League teams rent fields owned by the municipality where they’re located. But the bigger issue is when the state and local governments allow large gatherings for anything....ball games, festivals, etc.. No matter who owns the field, those rules prevail.are minor league fields privately own. ?
i am sure some legion teams own their baseball field
