Policy 4 - Inclement Weather

a)       All games will commence at the designated start time as per the schedule on the website. 

b)      When a regular season game is late in starting, the playing time will be shortened as all games must be completed within the scheduled time slot and finish on time for insurance purposes. 

c)       In the case of rain or other issues causing a delay of game a minimum of two (2) innings for U7 and U10 and three (3) innings for U14 and U19 will constitute a full game. The score will stand as of the last full inning.
