We request that you make every effort to review and share the information provided below with your district staff and act as liaisons with your local leagues, so that each can stay focused on a return to the fun and games of Little League. • Insurance Coverage: There have been many questions about local league insurance, including cancellation policies. Direction for answering these questions is available on <http://click.email.littleleague.org/?qs=656940a1a16c0cf5ec8fb942f127881b5ddf2b7753e4c760669f1ac617f4f9af932aa4c233c1a516378877762e6002a3> LittleLeague.org/2020InsuranceFAQ . Even if any of your leagues have decided to cancel the 2020 regular season, Little League International highly recommends that every local Little League program maintain their insurance coverage. A series of new Insurance FAQs have been added that outline the process for leagues to consider canceling their insurance, and the cancellation process is available through the Data Center. Leagues should fully understand all impacts of canceling insurance prior to completing the Data Center process for leagues who utilize the AIG Insurance Program for Little League. This program is administered by Keystone Risk Managers LLC (“Keystone”) and is not an insurance program run through Little League directly. For additional questions regarding insurance coverage, please contact Brent Stahlnecker, Little League Director of Risk Management, at <mailto:bstahlnecker@LittleLeague.org> bstahlnecker@LittleLeague.org or David Irwin, CIC, CWCA, AU Chief Underwriting Officer, Property Casualty Business Development at Keystone Insurance Group, <mailto:dirwin@keystoneinsgrp.com> dirwin@keystoneinsgrp.com. • 2020 Charter Fee Refund: Earlier this month, each chartered league’s 2020 charter fee was credited to its account. The credits were applied through the Little League® Data Center and were based on the number of teams each chartered for this season. • Help Leagues Support their Families: Dr. Darrell Burnett, a child psychologist, long-time local league volunteer, and former member of the Little League International Board of Directors, provided his perspective on <http://click.email.littleleague.org/?qs=656940a1a16c0cf59a4a375720043d2b75e55fb96bff259d9931b000a2733fd1167739b9203c5eeb775cc99d8858a9a9> dealing with stress and anxiety while adhering to social distancing. • Financial Guidance: The fiscal transparency of a local league or district will be even more important in 2020.
