But it should have been. Don't leave anything to chance. If your not sure, probably the other coach isn't either. But guess who is going to take the heat about it afterwards.

This is why you get to a field, especially a new one, early. Take a stroll around and look for things like this. Make sure you cover these things in ground rules. It may save you from having a problem latter.

Rule 4.1.2 talks about "unusual conditions" that are to be straighten out during ground rules.

So you see where you went wrong?
