Rain-out?
Remind your parents to call the Weather Line if it looks like rain. The Weather Line is updated until 4:30 daily. If the weather turns bad after 4:30, coaches are encouraged to contact the grade rep and/or the other coach to determine if the game should be cancelled. If the game is cancelled late, the coach will then need to contact all of the team parents. Occassionally, the game will have to be cancelled at the field.
Weather Line .........................................952-826-0368
Games are to be played in light and moderate rain. Upon seeing lightning, games are to be cancelled immediately.
Make-Up Games
