Reminder regarding Field Status!
In the event of inclement weather, coaches are reminded to call the Prince William County Department of Parks and Recreation status line at (703) 792-3282 in order to receive the latest status on baseball fields at Catharpin and Long Parks. During the weekdays, the county makes a call at 3pm, and on weekends the county will make a call at 7am and 12pm (if necessary). The only time the county will update the status line at 12pm on the weekend is if the fields were closed at 7am and conditions have improved to open them, or if the fields were open at 7am and conditions deteriorated resulting in closure(s).
GHBL will not send out field status in the event that fields are open. Field status will only be sent by GHBL if fields are closed.
If the county has made a decision to open the fields, games/practices should continue as scheduled and scheduled umpires should show up for games. If weather deteriorates after the county has made a decision to open fields, the decision then falls on the coaches to decide if fields are playable. Ultimately, it is the coaches discretion at that point to ensure player safety.
If there are additional questions regarding these instructions or direction, please reach out to avoid any confusion moving forward.
