Snow cancellation?

Left a message asking for someone to call me to confirm the games were off, but I doubt that will happen. Can I assume that since school is canceled and the roads are/will be treacherous that there will be no games?

Try calling the visiting school to see if the game is cancelled.

Yep -- and / or check the schools' web-sites, and athletic schedules.

A first for me here. I was just called to confirm that the game was still on tonight. This is the only school in my area that does not have a policy that all activities are automatically cancelled when school is closed.

Oh well - good for me! Short drive and dinner waiting when I get home!!

We had a little rain here....ice didn't materialize. My game was already rescheduled for Saturday.

Different areas have different policies. Here, it's up to the A.D. to contact the officials of postponements, but sometimes, the A.D.s contact the assignor, who then contacts us. Typically, there's no rule that says you can't call and check for yourself.

By the way, most frequently, these games are postponed, not cancelled. Big difference.

For me it may as well be a cancellation. Like always, they rescheduled on a date I'm already working.

My games just got canceled because of bad weather. Mind you I live in Houston and we are getting an arctic blast, temps are suppose to drop into the 20's.

I originally from NYC, like a co-worker of mine just said, are they playing basketball outside? Unbelievable.

Are you getting actual precipitation to go with the cold? Or are they canceling simply because it's too cold?

Which school district? I have games tomorrow, Friday and Saturday and haven't heard a peep about cancellations. It wouldn't surprise me if Friday got canceled considering it is supposed to snow that day.
