COVID FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
League Position on Coronavirus (COVID-19)
Dear Coaches and Parents:
The health, safety and well-being of our players, coaches, parents and fans is of the utmost importance for us at Midwest Ohio Baseball LLC.
The situation regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is changing rapidly. We are monitoring the situation and are in discussions with park districts and coaches regarding this difficult situation.
Ohio Department of Health Director Amy Acton has banned gatherings of more than 100 people. Individual games in youth baseball would not typically violate that threshold.
We have no intention of cancelling the Midwest Ohio Baseball Season at this time. We know that teams, players, coaches and families all have a vested interest in this baseball season. It is important that we protect this interest by not simply canceling the season. Thus, as we have always done, coaches have the options to control their schedule.
You may choose to play or not to play games beginning March21st or to postpone the beginning of your schedule. It is currently up to you.
Please communicate with your parents, opponents, parks/fields and any other stakeholders regarding early season games.
In the meantime, if you decide to play games or practice now, please remind your parents and players:
We are following this situation closely and will continue with updates.
We simply are not willing at this time, to simply cancel the season.
If the need arises to postpone the official beginning of the season, or to otherwise suspend the season in some way, we will be in touch and post to this site.
Respectfully,
Wade Westfall, President

Celebrating our 30th Year
Midwest Partnering with Local Communities
Coaches:
The upcoming season marks the 30th for Midwest Ohio Baseball League (under two names). The Midwest Ohio Baseball League has been the formative League for thousands of players who went on to play high school baseball, hundreds of players who went on to play college baseball and dozens of players, including some Major Leaguers, who have gone on to play professionally. We are proud of our impact on the Baseball Community and intend to continue to positively influence baseball in the Miami Valley for many years to come.
Our Prime Directive has always been to do what is in the best interests of baseball in the Miami Valley and to remember, it is always about kids playing baseball.
We are announcing several initiatives for the 2020 season which will enhance this Prime Directive:
Be on the lookout for exciting announcements and more information in the coming days.
