MAY 6, 2020 UPDATE

We will have a virtual meeting for all NVTBL spring and summer 8u - 18u coaches on Thursday, May 7th at 6:15 pm (UPDATED TIME) sharp.  We have sent out that link via email.   We will be discussing summer plans for all age levels.  We are doing the work to plan for a potential best case scenario for late summer play.  In order to be prepared we have to start that process now.

-  5/7-  Summer 15-18u Season Registration Opens

-  5/24-  Summer Registration Closes-  all availability calendars thru August 2nd must be updated for any 8u - 18u team who wants to play in the summer if fields are open.

Please click on the document below for more info on the potential summer season.

Starting Fall 2019, all Head and Asst. coaches along with others who come into contact with players must have a background check that was run no earlier than November 15th, 2018.  These has to be done by September 1, 2019.  This has been mandatory for Fairfax County coaches and will now be mandatory for all NVTBL coaches and administrators.  A federal law is in the pipeline and we want to make sure that everyone is compliant.  

NVTBL has secured an arrangement with USA Baseball to provide a low cost option for background checks (only $6).  If you have already done a background check after 11/15/18 and can provide the documentation, that will suffice.  We will be sending out the USA Baseball background check option and also follow-up with additional specifics. NVTBL wants to notify everyone now so that you can start to prepare a plan within your organizations and teams.  

All games are now no new inning 1 hour and 50 minutes.

A reminder that there is never a drop dead time limit for any NVTBL games.

All umpire pricing will stay the same for 2020.
