The Texas Collegiate League and each of our franchises are first and foremost hoping all of our host families, players, coaches and fans are staying healthy and safe as we continue to follow our states and CDC’s recommendations to overcome this global pandemic.
In light of the current outbreak, and after consultation with medical professionals, community leaders and with our supporting collegiate baseball programs, the TCL has decided to delay the start of the 2020 Season
The TCL voted unanimously to move the season opener to July 3rd to provide our franchises ample time to prepare and ensure that the safety of our fans and all involved is addressed with the utmost scrutiny. The league continues to monitor social distancing requirements and has begun to put in guidelines for fans to be able to safely attend our ballparks this summer.
“As we have to address uncertain times across two states, we wanted to provide the best possibility to have baseball back for the athletes and most importantly an opportunity for fans and families to be a part of the TCL this season; Therefore, the decision to move the start date made the most sense at this time” said Uri Geva, TCL League President.
The defending TCL Champions, Brazos Valley Bombers, will take on the Victoria Generals for a two game series in Victoria, Texas to celebrate the return of TCL Baseball and America’s Independence, followed by home openers on July 6th, 8th and 10th at the remaining teams.
