Weather

---

A. Inclement Weather:

In the event of rain, the home player/team must verbally contact the opponent as soon as it is apparent that the match will not be played at the scheduled time. The home player/team should never assume the opponent knows it is wet at your courts and the visiting team should never assume that a match is canceled due to weather at opponent’s courts. DO NOT cancel matches via email. Always call your opponent when the weather is questionable. If Team A shows up at the courts to play at the scheduled match time/day, and Team B does not show because they assume the match is unplayable due to weather (without making contact with Team A), Team A may take the win by default.

B. Rescheduling due to weather:

If weather dictates that you reschedule your match, you should do so before the "Deadline" date in case of rain on that day. If the player/team cannot agree to reschedule before the "Deadline" date, then the match is rescheduled at the default time.

C. Weather Interruption:

If players have assembled to play and the match is delayed or interrupted by rain or wet courts, players should be prepared to wait a ½ hour to determine if the court is playable. If after 30 minutes, or if forecasts indicate that a long delay is inevitable, players are free to leave and reschedule. If the match had begun, players should resume the match at the exact game and point as they stood when halted. New balls must be provided by the home team when resuming a match in the 3rd set, or with more than 2 days between the start of the original match.

D. Extreme Temperatures:

If the temperature is above 98 degrees with the published heat index or below 32 degrees (Fahrenheit) before the match is started, it is the option of the players to reschedule the match. The delayed match must be played within one week of the deadline date during the regular season (with the exception of the last week of play) and does not include the playoffs. Do not force an opponent to play in temperatures that can pose a health risk.

E. Inclement Weather on the LAST "Deadline" date of the season:

If you have a match scheduled on the last "Deadline" date of the season and it is rained out, it will go unscored, and you will not receive points for the match. You cannot use your late pass due to the start of the playoffs.

F. Incomplete matches - that will not be completed:

If a match is rained out and it will not be completed at later time, player/teams should report an incomplete match. Select this option from the scoring page. Neither player/team will receive the win, however, both players/teams will receive up to a maximum of 10 points based on the number of games won in their two best sets.
