The Directors of Duxbury Youth Baseball would like to provide an update about playing baseball in 2020. In the coming weeks if federal and state officials lift restrictions to the point where a town baseball program like ours can reasonably play games while adhering to CDC guidelines in a safe environment then we would like to have an option to do so. With some states easing restrictions and Massachusetts considering the same, our decision to play, or not play will become clear in the next few weeks. We understand that there are varying opinions about the best way to approach these decisions but if we cancel youth baseball now, it would be very difficult to give the kids an opportunity to play if the situation were to arise in late June or July. The safety and health of all involved will continue to be our number one concern when deciding about playing baseball. A final decision will be made about baseball in Duxbury no later than mid-June.  DYB will offer the option of a full refund for the cost of the spring season when a final decision is made about youth Duxbury Youth Baseball in 2020. Thank you for your continued patience and support.
