IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM GOALS PRESIDENT GINNY PEISER ON THE CORONAVIRUS -March 21, 2020
Dear Goals Fast-Pitch Members:
We are living in a strange time with many things changing by the day. I wish I had good news for you but I must inform you all that the Spring 2020 season is on PAUSE. As per the Governors and the Mayors orders all youth sports must be suspended until we are able to be in groups larger than 10 again.
I wish I knew how long this will last but like you I don’t. I know we will not be getting back onto the field by April 4th. Schools are scheduled to reopen on April 20th. That may or may not happen. Everything is an unknown. So, for now we will have to wait and see. April 4th is Canceled and Expect Opening Day to Be Moved to a Future Date.
The plan for Goals is to get going as soon as we can. The Board of Directors and I are putting together a plan for a softball season at some point. We do not want to cancel anything unless we have no choice.
Goals’ #1 priority is the health of all our Members, Coaches and Staff. 1 game is not worth the risk of someone within our Goals family falling ill. I am sure you all agree.
So, for now hang tight and keep your families healthy. I will keep you all updated as we get further into Spring. Please know this hurts and disappoints me as much as I know all our young ladies are feeling too. Sports teaches us that we can overcome whatever is thrown at us—I know our girls are the kind of people who are resilient and will get through this stronger and braver than ever.
Once we get the ok, we will start at a moment’s notice and play as many games as we can. So stay prepared!!
If you haven’t done this yet LIKE our Facebook page. I have been posting fun and exciting things to do while we are all inside practicing social distancing. https://www.facebook.com/GOALS-Athletic-League-268821250881/
Stay safe and Wash Your Hands!!!
With Love,
Ginny

Hi Goals Members:
Every day brings new developments related to the COVID-19 virus and this uncertainty can be unsettling. GOALS is taking this very seriously and nothing is more important to us than the safety and well-being of our members, coaches, athletes, and supporters.
Because of this uncertainty myself and our Board of Directors met and following the examples of other organizations including Little League we will be postponing the start of our practices, changing the evaluation/draft date and canceling the remainder of our Winter Clinics.
We are now planning to hold our evaluation day and the team draft on Sat. April 4th outside at the Padavan-Preller Complex. Teams will be drafted that weekend and practices will get underway beginning on April 6th, 7th and/or the 8th.
These cancellations and postponements are both disappointing and necessary to prevent further spread of disease. I totally understand all our girls being disappointed but since our Opening Day is not scheduled until April 25th, we are planning to have plenty of time to get everyone onto the fields and ready for the season.
I am sure you all understand and that we are in new territory. Right now, I hope we will only lose a week of practice. I will be monitoring what our officials are asking us to do and will act accordingly to keep all of us safe and healthy.
Thanks for your understanding and patience. Stay safe.
All My Best,
Ginny & The Goals Board of Directors
