Today (Wed 6/18/2025) is an iffy day for weather, depending on where you are.   The league is not doing any widepsread cancellations.  Reminder of rule 5.13 (A):

If it is clear in advance of the game, that weather conditions make the home field unplayable, the home coach must try to notify the Coordinator of Referees and the visiting team so that they may avoid unnecessary traveling.

Today, we announced that if a home coach anticipates prolonged t-storms at their site at game time (or unsafe travel conditions for visiting teams), they may cancel the game, but they cannot do so earlier than 5pm.  In this scenario, the home coach is responsible for notifying the referee assignor (Mark, 585-216-5120) that the game has been cancelled.  Failure to do so may result in a fine.

We understand there is occasionally hesitation/unwillingness of a team to travel to a remote site due to perceived dangers en route, or weather once they get there.  Our rules do not cover this. Any team (Home or Visitor) deciding in advance that a game will not happen is not allowed, except as stated above. 

All such situations should be sent to the League President for review.  If the issue is raised early enough, potential remedies include application of a grace period, permission to reschedule, etc.  Without league permission, any cancellation subjects the responsible team to a potential forfeit situation.
