Health and Safety Notice

Health and safety are the top priorities at Branham Hills Little League.

Due to the recent spreading of the coronavirus (COVID-19), we wanted to provide some guidelines for league participants to help prevent the spread of contagious infections in our recreational sport community.

Branham Hills Little League supports the community preparedness public health actions provided by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) listed below.

  • Voluntary Home Isolation: Stay home when you are sick with respiratory disease symptoms. At the present time, these symptoms are more likely due to influenza or other respiratory viruses than to COVID-19-related virus.
  • Respiratory Etiquette: Cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue, then throw it in the trash can.
  • Hand Hygiene: Wash hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds; especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with 60%-95% alcohol.
  • Environmental Health Action: Routinely clean frequently touched surfaces and objects

Routine use of these measures by individuals and their families will increase community resilience and readiness for responding to an outbreak.


Additionally, the CDC has enacted requirements in the Travel Health Alert Notice below.
