Spitting is out, and so are high-fives: Little League is back with covid rules across D.C. area

Capitol Hill league players are encouraged to bring their own gear, but sharing equipment, which is disinfected between uses, is permitted. Players and coaches are required to wear masks on the field at all times, in accordance with guidelines established by EventsDC, which oversees The Fields at RFK Campus in Northeast Washington, and the D.C. Department of Parks and Recreation. Even the youngest kids have adapted well to the protocols, Fox said, but the league has been hampered by the city’s strict coronavirus restrictions and a scarcity of places to play.
