Snow cancellation?
Massive snowstorm hitting the area this afternoon, pretty much every school is canceled (including my college and the school I'm scheduled to work at this afternoon).
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? |

If it is canceled you will be paid (assuming you weren't notified) YMMV |

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!!

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. |

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. |

911 ...
We've been encouraged to call the police department. They're probably going to send a officer, for security, to the site, so they should know if the game is on, or off. Pesonally, I've never done this. The police have more importnat calls to take, especially during a snowstorm.
I once traveled twenty miles to a game during a snowstorm. Didn't get a call from my assigner, or the school. Couldn't get in touch with the school, my partner, or my assigner (olden days before cell phones). Took me over an hour to get to the game. The game was cancelled, but nobody contacted the cheerleadng coach, or the police officer, who I met in the parking lot. The officer confirmed the cancellation over his radio.
