Rain or Shine; Game On!




GAME ON UNLESS CANCELLATION IS ANNOUNCED.

The office will post an article if games are cancelled for weather.

If an article is not present, games are on and teams should be present.

 

Remember, weather changes quickly in our province/city so even if it is not great at 4:30pm, it can be beautiful at 6:30pm.

We do not cancel games for hotter or cooler temperatures or rain alone.

The Match Official has been given guidelines when games should be cancelled. It is their call alone.

 

Also, please be aware of the following Saskatchewan Soccer Association policy, which we are required to follow as a member organization:

 

Lightning Policy

 

In games, the match official has the authority over delaying or restarting a match due to weather. Waiting to stop play or not waiting to start or re-start play may result in a serious injury or loss of life. Match officials are expected to act responsibly when dealing with such events during games they are controlling.

If you can hear thunder, you can get hit by lightning. As soon as you hear thunder, quickly get to a safe location. More people are struck before and after a thunderstorm than during one. Stay inside for 30 minutes after the last rumble of thunder.

The ‘30/30 Rule’ or ‘Flash to Bang’ methods are no longer recommended by Environment Canada and are not to be used by match officials, team personnel, or participants.

 

We want to emphasize that the safety of our participants is our top priority.

 

While thunder and lightning requires games to be delayed or potentially cancelled, please note that games will continue rain or shine, AS RAIN ALONE DOES NOT WARRANT CANCELLATION.

 

See our Rules for any additional information.
