Field Policy and Etiquette
For competitive programs,
coaches are expected to contact
their opposing team's
coach/manager by the Wednesday
prior to the game to inform them
of their game location and time.
If you cannot reach the first
contact, try the second.
In the event of field closures
due to inclement weather, there
is a protocol to follow. If the
home team's field is closed, the
home team must contact the away
team as soon as possible to
inform them of the cancellation.
If the away team can provide a
grass field to play on, the game
moves to the away team's
location.
If neither team can provide a
grass field, but one team can
provide an all-weather (gravel)
surface, the game will proceed
on that gravel pitch. Every
reasonable effort must be made
to try and keep to the posted
schedule.
