Eventually the weather will be bad and you will be wondering "is my practice still on?".
EBLAX PRACTICE CANCELLATIONS
The decision is made by the leagueBY 4:00PM.
A member of the EBLAX board will walk the fields and check the forecast to make this determination.
The system will be updated if your practice is canceled. The practice will be crossed out and in red on your team webpage to indicate it has been canceled.
ALL edits (not just cancellations) to the schedule will triggers email alerts, text message alerts (if opted in on their profile) and the schedule on your team page is updated.
As this is all automated, you do not have to do anything but it you want to connect with your team as well, great.
Remind parents to check the website when in doubt ( after 4:00pm).
Remind parents TO GET THE APP so they get notices on their phone.
RIYLL GAME CANCELLATIONS:
On Saturday game days, each town makes the determination if their fields are safe to play on between 6:45am and 7:15am.
Cancellations are sent to RIYLL.
RIYLL notifies the referees FIRST
RIYLL then updates the schedule and the alerts go out and the game will be crossed out and in red on your team webpage to indicate the game is canceled.
Some programs will cancel the entire day, others will hold out hope and cancel only the 1st game.
General rule of thumb is a the referees and programs will be notified no less than 60 minutes prior to a game.
