I already brought up this point.
We get to the game and the rains come and the game is haulted. No differerent then if we FIRST arrive at the game and the HT is trying to get the field ready. In other words the decision to play or not to play PRIOR to us taking JURSIDICTION is with the HC or AD. Once we take the field THEN it's our decision whether to play or not.
Same thing here. We vacate the premises in accordance with the 30/30 rule.
If the players / coaches go back ONTO the field PRIOR to 30/30, it is NOT our responsibility. That responsibility rests with the AD/coaches / league administrators etc. Depending upon the field, we most likely are NOT at the field. We are in safety ourselves.
I will ask you this - How will you stop the players / coaches from going back out onto the field?
Are you going to start taking numbers and EJing anyone who enters the field?

For a guy who wants the death sentence for malicious contact you're pretty lax on this one.
