Dear Mississippi Whitecaps Members,

We wanted to provide our MLL members with an update regarding the 2020 baseball season. Due to the continuing need for social distancing and stay at home orders requested by Governments and Health Officials in regards to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not been able to start our baseball season.

At this time, there are no impacts to programs scheduled to begin after June 30th, so the hope is for us to offer a combined spring/summer program for all our members if it is safe to do so, but we all know that things can change between now and then. The registration is closed for the time being since we are trying to limit the amount of administration work for our volunteers if we end up cancelling the season, and refunds/credits need to be processed. Please keep in mind if you know someone who still has an interest in registering their child for the 2020 season that we will open registration once we are able to confirm a start date. Please respect the fact that until the emergency orders are lifted, we are unable to confirm and communicate when and if the 2020 season will commence.

With the unfortunate economic impact, we are all facing by the current crisis, we fully understand and respect the fact that some families could use the funds for family needs at this time. The MLL Executive Board has approved an “urgent refund” mechanism should your family need a refund of the league fee submitted for the 2020 season. If you would like to request a refund, please email the MLL registrar at RegistrarMLL@gmail.com and provide the player name(s) by Friday, April 17th. We will then process the refund in the form of a cheque and mail it directly to the address provided on file.

As more information becomes available, we will provide updates to all our members.

Thank you for your patience during these challenging times, we will all get through this together,


Mississippi Little League – Executive Board Members
