Cancellation Of the American Legion National Organization 2020 Baseball Season

Posted

In light of the continuing circumstances resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, effective immediately the American Legion National Organization has canceled all 2020 Regional Tournaments and The American Legion World Series.

Concurrently, The American Legion National Organization has shut down all sponsorship and all involvement in baseball for the 2020 season. This shutdown of all sponsorship and all involvement in baseball for the 2020 season means that those baseball teams that wish to continue playing 2020 season baseball shall be participating in a sporting event not sponsored, nor endorsed in any manner, by The American Legion National Organization, but sponsored and endorsed solely by the group the team is named.

Any baseball team that continues play in the 2020 season sponsored by the group the team is named must understand that its team is not playing as an American Legion National Organization “registered” baseball team and it is not playing in an American Legion National Organization baseball program.

All baseball teams that paid The American Legion National Organization administrative fees shall have these fees reimbursed to the teams.
