PGCBL Cancels 2020 Season

League President Robert Julian continued in the statement saying that

We have engaged in watchful waiting in the hope we could commence play on either May 29 or on a later date, but we are now persuaded that the likelihood and probability of either option is low to non-existent. We understand that the issues faced by our state and local governments create unsurmountable hurdles that prevent us from safely playing....We look forward to the 2021 season.
