Phil Davis, the president of Oxford Little League, emphasized the need to allow children the freedom to play sports: "We all felt like living scared isn't the right way to live. We've gone through so much with COVID-19; I believe that parents must assess the risks for their kids and make informed decisions. It's crucial for these children to enjoy their youth and have opportunities to engage in sports without excessive restrictions."
Hundreds of parents have come together, displaying unity over their concerns about youth sports restrictions. A petition was signed, illustrating their determination: "We will not let our children be further affected by restrictions stemming from fear. These kids have already endured too much during the pandemic, and we believe it is time they reclaim their outdoor playtime and participation in youth sports, provided we take reasonable precautions against threats like EEE."
