Flag of Moergestel (Netherlands) Flag of Haarlem (Netherlands) Flag of Amsterdam (Netherlands) Flag of Haarlemmermeer (Netherlands) MOERGESTEL / HAARLEM / AMSTERDAM / HOOFDDORP (Neth.) - On Saturday (May 23), the first half of the 2020 regular season in the Dutch Golden League was to end, as today the seventh series of double-headers was scheduled. However, the softball-season is currently on hold, as all regular season-games have been annuled through June 30 because of measures taken against the spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. New dates have not yet been announced.

From March 12 on, the Government of the Netherlands regularly announced several (stricter) measures due to the coronavirus. On Wednesday (May 6), there was another update regarding the measures and a little more freedom was announced then. But it was also announced that official games and competitions remain not possible through September 1. The latest update was last Tuesday (May 19).
On Tuesday (May 12), the Royal Netherlands Baseball and Softball Association (KNBSB) announced that it has annuled all official regular season games in all baseball/softball leagues through Tuesday, June 30. The KNBSB is in talks with the NOC*NSF (Netherlands Olympic Committee/Netherlands Sports Federations) regarding options how to continue, as it still hopes a new season can be played this year.
We don't know when, but softball and baseball of course also will be back in the Netherlands! Of course only when it is safe to do so for everyone involved. Until then, take care and stay safe!
After a hot Thursday, Saturday was a day with some cloudy weather conditions and temperatures around 17 degrees Celsius (62,6 F) with sometimes a strong (and chilly) wind.
Beneath are the games that were scheduled to be played today with the assignments of the game-officials.
