Weather Policy

RAIN

We will largely play in the rain. Often we have to wait for a decision from Parks and Rec regarding field usability. We never want to use a field that might be damaged from usage during wet conditions.

 

THUNDER + LIGHTNING

When lightning strikes we will clear the fields and wait for the weather to pass. If we get 30 minutes between lightning strikes, teams can resume play. The 30-minute clock restarts every time lightning flashes or thunder sounds.

 

SNOW + COLD

We do not play with measurable snow on the ground (or frost).

20-32 Degrees

  • Increase surveillance with self and buddy checks 
  • Wear appropriate layers and wind protection for the play location
  • Cover exposed flesh if possible 
  • Avoid sweating. 
  • Limit outdoor training duration to 2 hours

10-20 Degrees 

  • Recommended play/ warming cycle: 50 minutes play/10 minutes warming 
  • Mandatory buddy checks every 20–30 minutes 
  • Sleeves and pants/tights available 
  • Hats and gloves/mittens recommended 
  • Avoid sweating 
  • Limit outdoor training duration to 90 minutes 


Below 10 Degrees 

  • Suspend all outdoor club activities
