Thanks to everyone who signed the petition to keep field permits for youth sports orgs & voiced their support. With your help & pressure, @NYCMayor & @NYCParks are reversing their policy!

Special thanks to @SBronxUnited for their leadership!

Youth Sports Call Foul on New City Permit Policy https://t.co/rqJhFkYCoL

@NYCParks @NYCMayor: opening fields 1st-come/1st serve = severe blow to non-profits/less affluent fams; social distancing unenforceable. Permits later useless as leagues folded by then. #Fields4NYCYouth

[West Side Soccer League @WSSL_NYC]

@NYCParks: Fields remain open for 1st-come/1st serve, socially-distanced play.Will reassess ability to issue permits later in the fall

->Severe blow to non-profits/less affluent fams.PEP dismantled, social distancing unenforceable.Permits later useless as leagues folded by then

[Steve Burns @StvBurns]

Kids, parents, politicians all rallying in Bay Ridge for youth sports to return this fall. @NYCParks has decided against issuing permits, making the fields first come, first served. That makes it near impossible for organized leagues to hold games @wcbs880

[West Side Soccer League @WSSL_NYC]

Not to mention that the field house was built with generous support of those non-profits who are now denied field permits. @RiversideParkNY @HelenRosenthal @westsiderag @DanGarodnick #Fields4NYCYouth

THREAD: As of right now, NYC is not granting permits to athletic leagues in parks this fall. Instead of granting permits, the policy will be first-come-first-served.  That’s a mistake, and bad for parents and kids. 1/6

[West Side Soccer League @WSSL_NYC]

Very sad to see @NYCMayor & @NYCParks take fields away from non-profit youth orgs that cater to underserved families, permitting for-profit companies to take over. Elected officials abandoning their communities @HelenRosenthal @galeabrewer @westsiderag @MarkLevineNYC

In NYC we'll miss another entire season to the detriment of many of our low income families & in favor of for profit companies who have means to squat & occupy fields thanks to @NYCMayor & @NYCParks 1st come/1st serve policy #Fields4NYCYouth @AYSO_Soccer @ussoccer
