Despite there not being an official Legion season, many of the Legion teams around here will be playing weekend tournaments and week day games with each other starting around June 10th or so. As far as I know Waverly, Chillicothe, Portsmouth, Lancaster, McArthur, Marietta, Ashland and Hillsboro are all playing. Not sure who else is still playing.

Would this cause any OHSAA eligibility issues?

OHSAA waved all rules for this summer.
No player limit or days of contact because HS baseball got screwed out of their season this spring.
It goes all the way until August 31, 2020.

From Troy Bolin:

Athens has put together a team that will be playing a 20-25 game schedule (and a few tournaments) against other teams in and around Southeastern Ohio. Athens will be made up of players who recently won a district championship in 2019 and was a district semifinalist in 2018. The roster includes 8 graduating seniors and 5 juniors to go along with 2018 graduates Eli Kennedy
and Preston Hayes. The season begins June 9th and runs through July 18th. Some key highlights to the upcoming season include a rematch with Warren (2019 extra-inning district championship) at Warren on June 24th at 6PM. A 4th of July tournament at Beavers Field in Lancaster and another tournament at Paints Stadium in Chillicothe June 26th-28th. Athens also has games scheduled vs Steubenville and Troy. The season begins Tuesday June 9th at Meigs.
