As a new organization, we are grateful for the support we have received and appreciate your patience and understanding as we navigate this uncertain time. With the commencement of our inaugural season quickly approaching, we want to make it clear that we are prioritizing the health and safety of all involved parties, especially our players and our fans.
According to the CDC, the current immediate risk of being exposed to COVID-19 is thought to be low if individuals adhere to the recommended guidelines for prevention. However, the WUL recognizes that our regions’ various Public Health Departments and other professional sports leagues around the country have been taking a more proactive approach to COVID-19 mitigation, particularly in the context of large group events.
In consideration of the current recommendations, the WUL has decided to postpone the start of our 2020 season. Games currently scheduled for the month of March are being rescheduled for the month of May. However, we will continue to monitor the situation and may adjust our plans as circumstances evolve.
All options are being considered for the remainder of the 2020 season, including live streaming or tape delaying games without fans. We will continue to update our fans, sponsors, and vested community members as soon as possible.
Thank you again for your understanding and for your support.
