Wheelchair Softball Summer Schedule

Coronavirus (COVID-19) and the 2020 Wheelchair softball season

By NWSA Staff

The National Wheelchair Softball Association (NWSA) has developed guidelines regarding practices and tournaments for the 2020 summer season, including the 2020 Wheelchair Softball World Series, due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. 

  •  Teams should use their discretion regarding the holding of practices or the hosting of any tournament for the 2020 season. Teams should make these decisions in consultation with their sponsors and organizers under the advisement from their local community health officials. 
  • If tournaments are held at any time throughout the summer, teams should use discretion regarding travel and participation in another city. Considerations should include requirements dictated by local health officials and possible quarantine requirements when arriving or returning to another city or state during the coronavirus pandemic.
  • Teams are requested to send updates to Commissioner Bruce Froendt at bfroendt@cox.net for updates to the 2020 season schedule listed on the NWSA website and Facebook page.
  • Players should use discretion regarding participating in any practices or tournaments for the 2020 season. Players should make these decisions in consultation with their families and team organizers, under the advisement from their local community health officials. 
  • 2020 Wheelchair Softball World Series – Biloxi, MS: A decision will be made and communicated by tournament hosts in May regarding the status of the 2020 championship tournament.

 As each day passes, more information will be available within local communities to assist team organizers in making informed decisions regarding the 2020 season. The NWSA strongly encourage teams to follow the recommendations of their local public health officials to ensure the safety and health of our players, volunteers, families, and friends.
