Game starting time change

Posted on by

Ladies and Gents,

 As of Monday and for the months of July and August, all divisions will start their games at no later than 9:30 am. Batting practice will be from 8:45 to 9:15 and infield practice if desired will be from 9:15 to 9:30 am.  A number of health related issues have occurred this past week due the heat and humidity. This time change hopefully will get us all out of the extreme temps sooner. Thanks for your cooperation.

Rick Anderson,

WECSSO VP/Commissioner
