Weather Updates & Policies

We cannot base our judgment off a forecast, so we wait to make decisions until we actually SEE the weather in action. See below RAIN OUT POLICY or INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY for WHEN to check for cancellations. The venue status table below is only updated if/when conditions change.

Rainout Policy - Outdoor Events

We play in the rain, however, we do not play in heavy rain or lightning.
Since weather is often unpredictable, please check the weather update widget above AND our Twitter feed before leaving for your match.
Keep in mind we won't make a decision on cancellation until 5:30 PM (or ONE hour before the first scheduled match of the evening) to make sure we make the best call possible. We will not make a decision to cancel any sooner unless it is absolutely clear that the weather will be unplayable.

INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
