Here is an update from the Horseshoe Saskatchewan Executive regarding horseshoe pitching for 2020. ____________________________________________________________________________________ June 19, 2020... We are regrettably writing to inform you that after much deliberation we are going to be cancelling the 2020 horseshoe Season. We have been closely monitoring the Reopen Saskatchewan Plan, as of June 22, Phase 4.1 we are able to continue practising and League play. Under phase 4.1 we are not allowed to hold tournaments where our members can travel to play against each other. We are able to play in our own clubs against each other as long as we social distance 6 ft and practise good hygiene. We must either wash our hands or if that is not an option you must use hand sanitizer, there can be no handshakes, high fives or any physical contact with another player. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact one of the executives or reply to this email. All club play requires a waiver to be completed which will be emailed tomorrow.
