Thank YouThe voluntary DAA Baseball Advisory Committee would like to thank you for learning our plan to helpreduce the spread of COVID-19 during baseball activities. There is residual risk of transmission as thereis risk in any sport for injury. We feel if everyone follows the new “rules” it will provide a saferenvironment for everyone.The DAA Baseball Advisory Committee is a volunteer organization. We do not purport that ourprocedures will eliminate the risk of COVID-19 spread while engaging in baseball activities. It is not thesole responsibility of DAA Baseball or the coaches to keep our athletes safe. Parents/guardians need totake an active role in setting expectations with their athletes, observing behaviors during events, andhaving the courage to respectfully notify coaches or the DAA Advisory Committee of non-complianceor better methods to keep everyone safer.These procedures and expectations may change as CDC, local government guidelines change and/orupon further review with the Advisory Committee. All changes will be communicated.If you would like contact the DAA Baseball Advisory Committee, please call or email the Sports Director
