KGFW Sports – No American Legion Baseball in 2020?

The American Legion National Organization has shut down all sponsorship and all involvement in baseball for the 2020 season. This means that teams wishing to continue playing this season will be participating in a sporting event not sponsored, nor endorsed in any manner, by the American Legion National Organization. However, the Nebraska Athletic Committee will be meeting Friday in order to discuss options on how the Nebraska season will proceed. The American Legion National Organization had already cancelled all 2020 season’s Regional Tournaments and The American Legion World Series. Governor Pete Rickeetts has approved re-opening youth baseball and softball, with practice starting June 1st and games starting June 18th.
