While it’s not time to dust off the infielder glove quite yet, the Department of Parks and Recreation announced today they’ll begin accepting permits for athletic fields for 2010. And, in fact, you don’t have very long to get them in. Permits will be accepted from today until January 14 for field use between March 1 and August 31 of next year. The permits are issued on a first-come, first-served basis, but priority is given to certain groups:

  • DPR Programs
  • Schools: Public & Charter Schools
  • Youth/Adult Partners: MOA / MOU
  • Youth: non-partner
  • Private Schools
  • Adult Organizations: non-partner
  • Non-Resident Organizations:

Note that Stoddert Field and Fort Stanton will be closed for the 2010 season.
