Despite last week's announcement that we will not hold a 2021 season, our board will continue to monitor the local environment, communicate with the City of Buffalo Division of Parks & Recreation, and share all relevant updates with managers and the QCSL community.
In light of the new CDC guidelines recently released, the board contacted the City for any updates to Buffalo Parks requirements. The Division of Parks stated that the existing COVID-19 plan is still mandated for use of the park fields. They also reiterated that county or federal guidelines do not supersede the City's requirements for permitting.
We will continue to monitor the situation and share new information as we receive it. If you have any other questions regarding the canceling of the season, please contact us here or via our website.
Stay safe and healthy out there. We miss seeing our softball family, but we hope to connect with everyone as soon as it's safe to do so. 🦬 🌈 🥎 ♥️ ... See MoreSee Less

My question is how are leagues like game on able to get permits in the city of Buffalo but we are not?
Oh no! Why not? We’re still able to do VGL kickball this spring and summer.

The QCSL Board will be meeting in the coming days to review the COVID-19 trends in WNY and our draft safety protocols, as required by the City of Buffalo for recreational permitting. Upon the completion of that review, a decision will be made regarding the 2021 season. We will provide an update to the community by April 20.
Thank you all for your patience. Please stay safe, socially distanced, wear a mask, and get vaccinated! ❤️🌈 🥎 ... See MoreSee Less

To all QCSL players, coaches, sponsors and fans, we would like to provide an update on our ongoing evaluation of holding a season in 2021.
The QCSL board has been meeting regularly during the offseason to evaluate the ongoing COVID-19 situation in WNY. The league has also been in constant communication with the City of Buffalo regarding the precautions necessary to potentially hold a season in 2021.
On March 13, the board met to discuss and formulate a COVID-19 Safety Plan, which is necessary to obtain a City of Buffalo park permit, to ensure it conforms with the requirements laid out by the City as well as the latest safety guidance from the County & State.
While these discussions are still ongoing, it is important to know that regardless of State-wide procedures, the City Parks Department can set guidelines however they see fit to promote safety in their parks. Those guidelines are likely to be more comprehensive than the general guidelines provided by other government authorities.
If the league decides to hold a season this summer, it is critical that every player must adhere to the COVID-19 safety plan. In the event we move forward with registration, acceptance and agreement to the safety policies will be part of the signup process.
We appreciate everyone's patience as the league works through this new, complex process with the City of Buffalo. We will provide ongoing updates as more information becomes available.
Above all else, we hope everyone in the extended QCSL family are doing well and staying healthy. Stay tuned!!
