Dear Valued Families of Pflugerville Little League,

The Board of Directors of Pflugerville Little League has been closely monitoring the increasing information that is becoming available about COVID-19, commonly referred to as coronavirus.  Earlier this evening, Little League International sent out a communication recommending the temporary suspension of all activities until at least April 6th with discretion given to leagues to follow official direction from municipalities, health agencies, and school districts at the local level.

At an emergency meeting of the Board of Directors this evening, we discussed at length the course of action to take regarding the recommendation from Little League International.  The safety and well-being of our players, parents, and volunteers is of highest importance to us.  It is a difficult decision to make and one we didn’t take lightly.  Ultimately, we have voted to continue practices and to follow some guidelines to help promote a sanitary environment.  We are prepared to reevaluate quickly as further information becomes available or if further communication from local officials is distributed. 

As of this writing, there have been no cases reported in Travis County or the surrounding counties. We are asking parents to help prevent the spread of sickness by keeping your child home if he or she is experiencing symptoms such as a fever, cough, or runny nose.  We also ask that you send each child with their own container of water and that they don’t share snacks with others.

If you have any questions or concerns, please email the Board of Directors at [email protected]. 

Thank you,

Jonathan Herridge

President of the Board of Directors
