The situation with in WAA has changed some since the up date last week. House baseball and House Softball refunds are in progress, it is anticipated that they should be complete by June 15th, if you do not see your refund credited to your account by then please contact Gene at the office and we will follow up. 

We have been given permission to gradually resume our programs on June 1st.  The City has issued us some field permits and the Traveling Softball programs will begin holding practice sessions then. The ability to host these sessions by no means is a complete return to normal, we are required top keep our groups limited to 10 people in groups called pods and we are allowed additional pods per practice based upon the size of the fields.  We will have strict protocols in place concerning social distancing and sanitation steps that must be taken.  Any family that does not want to expose their children to this activity will be afforded  the opportunity to drop and receive a refund. As far as games to play, we are still waiting for the Governor's panel to establish the complete guidelines for safe play. The recreational Soccer seasons are being evaluated on a daily bases and information regarding that status will transmitted  here and to those that are registered. The Track Program has decided to cancel the Track program for this year, theymay be holding some camp things later if they can get fspace to hold them. Watch the web site for details Waa is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable experience to your children and we welcome input from you on how we could better accomplish this. Stay Safe and have a great weekend.
