ARCL 2021
Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy and we hope you had a good winter break. As we head into 2021, I am sure most of you are eager to resume the league. With the vaccine starting to be distributed we hope that everyone gets it over the next few months as it becomes available. That being said, at ARCL, we will follow the guidance put forth by WA state and adjust accordingly. Keeping that in mind and knowing that the rollout of vaccine will take atleast next 3 or so months, we will not schedule Spring 2021 season.
We will re-visit the situation in March/April timeframe and make a decision on Summer league at that point. We do understand that even with vaccine many individuals/teams will not be comfortable playing this year. To ensure the safety and well being of all players, if we decide to schedule a summer season (keeping in mind WA state guidelines), we will keep the league recreational and it will not impact the rankings. We will share more details on this in March/April timeframe if we do decide to pursue this option.

Updates on ARCL Prize distribution ceremony
Hello teams,
We hope you are safe and healthy. Per our earlier communication, we decided to cancel ARCL league this year due to ongoing COVID-19 situation. As a result, we will also cancel our prize distribution ceremony for this year. However, you can still collect your summer’19 trophies starting Monday (6/22) directly from American trophies and Engravings store located at 12005 NE 12th St Suite #56, Bellevue, WA 98005; you can visit the store during weekdays between 10am – noon anytime. Once you pick your trophies,
please make sure to place the boxes back in the order you started; this will help ARCL and others to avoid misplacing trophies.
We ordered trophies based on ARCL website; if you see any spelling mistakes, please get them corrected at the store itself.
Note -- American trophies and Engravings store will be closed during holidays and weekends. Check their website (http://www.americantrophies.net/) before you visit.

Summer and Spring 2020 Seasons Cancelled
We hope everyone is staying safe and healthy. As per our previous communications, the safety of our players and the community is of utmost importance to us. We are also watching the guidance on different phases and progress WA state is making. At this point, the league can be conducted only when we move to Phase 3. Currently, it does not seem likely that Phase 3 will happen in the next month at minimum. We expect it to be be much later than that. Keeping above context in mind, below are the details for ARCL activities this year:
1) Spring 2020 and Summer 2020 seasons will be cancelled for this year
2) We will start the process of refunding the league fees to the teams starting next week. We will refund the same accounts the payment was made from for each team. We are in the process of transferring money from bank account to paypal so please be patient as we process all refunds. If you dont get your refund by June 30th, please reach out to us and we will follow up as needed
3) Depending on when we hit Phase 3 and beyond, we will consider scheduling a 'recreational' season this year which will not impact any rankings. This is to ensure that we respect individuals and teams that want to be extra cautious about their safety this year.
4) We will not be doing official prize ceremony. Instead we will be sending instructions in another email to all the teams/individuals who would have been up to receive trophies for last season on how and when they can collect their trophies.
5) Please note that all ground reservations are cancelled so please don't use the fields unless you have your own reservation. ARCL will only schedule games when it is safe to do so and at that time will do the needful reservations. We have received emails from ground authorities to request teams to be mindful of this as few individuals have been using the fields for cricket.
In the last 18-20 years of operating this league we never thought we would be skipping a whole year of crick
