The Boys and Girls Club of Laredo has suspended basketball league action until further notice. In an extraordinary measure of precaution, the Club will halt all basketball games for the second through sixth grade basketball league. The final two days of the regular season, playoffs, and championship games will be set at a time when it is a more conducive atmosphere for games.
According to Kevin López, assistant executive director of B&GC, “Our commitment to keeping the young people we serve safe is always our number one priority. Following the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak, it’s important that you know that the Boys & Girls Clubs of Laredo is doing everything possible to keep your child, our staff, and all of the volunteers protected from its spread. We are closely monitoring reports from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and our local health department for all updated information.
He added, “The prudent course of action at this time is to temporarily suspend the second and sixth grade basketball league. Our commitment to you and your children is unwavering,” he said.
