Currently, we are the only recreational baseball organization operating in South OC. We are so appreciative of the City of DP for working so hard to make this happen. We increased the size of our fall ball program by about 30% and are maxed out for all divisions, except one.

Preseason

We will have a preseason to get our players arm strength and condition back to normal from August 31 - Sept. 22 (est.). 

Games

As soon as the governmental authorities permit us to play games, we will add them. Tentatively, we will have games on Sundays only from September 20 - November 15 with a possible round-robin set of games from November 15 - 19. 

Due to the novel corona virus, we are firmly requesting you to honor a few things so we can keep this baseball season going. Please see below.

No Spectator Policy

We have a great thing going with the City allowing us to have our kids play baseball. We have a no spectator policy currently. Please only drop off/pick off your child(ren) and do not watch the practices. Please enjoy your free time while your child(ren) is/are learning baseball. The more people parking and the more people gathering, the more likely we are going to be shut down.

Parking and Driving

We have a great thing going with the City allowing us the opportunity to have our kids play baseball. We are sharing the parking lot with them so they can still conduct their community center classes by doing them outdoors. And in continuance with partnering with the City, we are modifying a couple things regarding practices. Please see below.

• The parking behind and alongside the community is closed for all of us at DPYB. Please use only the parking lot that runs parallel with Del Obispo Street.
• Parents are now permitted to temporarily park their cars and escort their children to/from practice (the no spectator policy is still in place, please).

I understand this parking situation is difficult for many of you and takes more of your time. Hopefully, OC will ease restrictions pertaining to the virus and we can go back to some form of normalcy very soon.

Games

We are getting closer and closer to getting games approved. Once the county allows it, we will start adding them. Hoping this happens within two weeks. Hoping when that happens, the spectator and parking policies above will also be lifted.

Novel Coronavirus Safety Protocols

Each family/child will be required to do the following, please:

• Every player will have his or her temperature checked at home just prior to each baseball event. If the child's temperature is 100.3 or greater, he or she must stay home and please notify your coach. 
• If your player is ill, stay home. 
• Every player will need to use hand sanitizer frequently. We will provide the first bottle. Hand sanitizer should be considered part of your player's baseball equipment and in his or her bag for the entire season.
• Every player will need to minimize contact by staying six feet away from all players and coaches as much as possible while at DPYB. 
• No player will be permitted to share equipment, except for the coach's baseballs. 

Refunds

There is a $50 deposit required at registration and if we cannot play, everyone will be refunded. If we get to continue to play, there will be an "at cost" fee invoiced as the season progresses. The plan is to have the fall ball season run Aug. 24 - Nov. 20

We appreciate you helping us and please feel free to contact me, if you may have any questions.

Go DPYB and Thank you,

Dana Kislig
