USTA SoCal outlines tentative schedule for the remainder of 2020 - Will you plan to play?

We know the USTA has suspended play through May 31.  We also know that National has canceled USTA League Nationals for 2020.  I also hypothesized what a continuation of league play may look like, but we haven't had much concrete information on what actually will happen, in large part due to the unknown of when play will resume.

The Pacific Northwest did announce that 40 & over would not be completed, nor would 18 & Over or Mixed 40 & Over be played, and correspondingly all Sectionals were being canceled.  There will be a free "Welcome Back to Tennis" league in the Summer, and Fall Early Start Leagues for 2021 are still scheduled to begin as planned.

I just learned that Southern Cal has tentative plans for resuming play, and they are going to try to finish and play all scheduled leagues.  This was from the San Fernando Area but mentions Sectionals, so seems to be applicable for the whole section:

• Adult 18 & Over will start the 2nd or 3rd week of June  and play through October 9.  All levels will play 1 court of singles and 2 courts of doubles
• Adult 40 & Over which was suspended will be completed, teams with "critical" matches have until August 28 to complete them
• Adult 55 & Over will play September thru November
• Adult 65 & Over will play September thru October
• Mixed 18 & Over which was suspended will be completed, teams with "critical" matches have until August 7 to complete them
• Mixed 40 & Over will start 1st week of July and play through mid-September
• Tri-Level will start the 1st week of July and play through the Summer
• Mixed Tri-Level TBD
• Fall SCTA Doubles will play September thru December
• Sectionals Schedule:
• Adult 18 & Over in November using 1 singles and 2 doubles
• Adult 40 & Over in September or October
• Adult 55 & Over in December or January
• Mixed 18 & Over in August or September
• SCTA Doubles in January as usual

I'm guessing that "critical" matches are those remaining matches in suspended leagues that have an impact on standings.  Thus, matches between teams out of the running do not need to be played.

So if you live in SoCal, you may still get to play the majority of your leagues and matches.  Will you still do so?  Or are you leery of coming back to play too quickly?  Or with no Nationals, you've lost interest?
