We've had so many of you reach out to us inquiring about the 2020 GCMFL season. At this point we are still not cleared to resume Fastball activities. While the executive is working on protocols behind the scene to ensure a safe and responsible return to play, the following phases must be approved by provincial and city health officials before we can hit the fields again:

1. Gatherings of more than 5 people must be approved.
2. While fields are currently open for RECREATIONAL use, the...y are still not cleared for game or practice use. The City of Ottawa must still approve permits before we can use the fields.
Once the fields are approved for use, we need to review distancing guidelines as we may need to limit the number of spectators at each game.

While we are eager to hit the fields, we must continue to do our part to adhere to social distancing guidelines. Fingers crossed that we will be able to see you all back on the diamond at some point this summer! Please continue to monitor our website for updates on the 2020 season.

Just wanted to send a quick note regarding our league tournament for this year. Since we are cancelling the regular June dates, we have reserved the Carp diamonds for the weekend of August 28-30 in hopes of completing a league tournament that weekend. Details and updates to follow once we have any new information to share.
