Game/Practice Cancellation Policy

FIELD CONDITIONS

Como Ball will make a game/practice day field evaluation by 3 pm. If a cancellation is required league-wide, it will be posted immediately on our website homepage, emailed to commissioners, coaches, and players, and posted on Facebook.

If at any time a coach determines the field or conditions are unsafe for players (even if the league has given the go-ahead to play), they have a responsibility to contact the opposing team coach and if in agreement*, cancel and notify their teams. 

*If an agreement can not be reached, contact the commissioner. 

WEATHER

If severe weather or heat-related safety issues are a concern, Como Ball will make a league-wide cancellation which will be posted immediately on our website homepage, emailed to commissioners, coaches, and players, and posted on Facebook. 

At any time, you must suspend play if lightning occurs, you are not allowed to play within a 1/2 hour if lightning has been witnessed. No exceptions will be tolerated. 

Minor weather (rain) - Cancellation of practice due to weather is up to the discretion of the coach. 

CANCELLATION ANNOUNCEMENTS

Announcements will go out no later than 2 hours before a game/practice. If it is stated “NO PRACTICE”, it has been determined by the Director of Operations that no one has clearance for outdoor practice that day. That includes league, tournament, and all “impromptu” practices. This is for the safety of our players, first and foremost, and our fields.

SAFETY is our #1 concern, FIELDS are our #2 concern and we don't want to sacrifice either to try to get a practice in. Reworking a field that has been used during wet conditions is difficult to fix, coaches will be responsible for this.
