Power shortage
 
In a men's game last night, the power went out. There was 12:36 left in the second half. (20 min period). The power never came back so the game was cancelled. Is there a rule that states that the whole game must be replayed or do we restart the game with the time left another day ?

I believe that's up to the governing body in charge of the game (ie state association, etc...). I would imagine that you would start at the point of interruption.

If this was wreck league, you're better off just forgetting about it. In fact, I bet there's people on this board who would love to know how you pulled that off. :D

Nfhs 5-4-3:
 
Whenever a game is interrupted because of events beyond the control of the responsible administrative authorities, it shall be continued from the point of interruption unless the teams agree to terminate the game with the existing score, or there are conference, league or state association rules to cover the situation.
