It pretty much rained all day today. Had a game at an older gym, and the roof started leaking, leading to a wet spot near the baseline on one end. It got so bad by the third game of the night, we had two kids stationed down there to wipe up the water every time we ran to the other end of the court. They were actually putting a bucket under the leak while play was at the other end and pulling it back when we came back down the floor.

I know I went flying into the wall once, and the kids slipped a few times too. I don't think it directly led to any turnovers, and it definitely didn't affect the outcome of the game (score was something like 47-10). But I was afraid the whole night that someone might get hurt. Would any of you have considered getting the coaches together, saying that you thought the court was unfit and unsafe for play, and asking if they would agree to call off the game?
