Opening Day Ceremony Scrapped For Horsham Little League Saturday

HORSHAM TOWNSHIP, PA —The opening day of the Little League season is a big deal every year in most communities.

But with the looming inclement weather, this year's Horsham Little League Opening Day ceremony set for Saturday is doomed.

League officials announced the "tough decision" to cancel Saturday's Opening Day Ceremony.

"Due to weather delays, the parking lot will not be paved before Saturday," officials said. "The weather forecast is not looking good for Saturday either, so we are going to pivot and plan something new for the 2025 season."

Officials are telling residents to circle their calendars for Saturday, May 31.

The Little League is shifting to an "HLL Community Day."

"We will incorporate our traditional opening day ceremony plans, like the parade of teams, but will be looking to add some extra events," officials said.

Volunteers interested in helping plan the event should reach out to horshamllpres@gmail.com.

While the ceremony has been scrapped, Saturday's slate of games are not at this moment.

Little League officials said they would monitor the threatening skies to see if the forecasted rain materializes before canceling games.

An announcement will be made Friday night or early Saturday morning to confirm whether the games will be played.
