Inclement weather policy for the United FC Ultimate Cup
WEATHER POLICY
Inclement Weather Policy: The tournament will follow US Soccer’s position statement that indicates when lightning is seen, the tournament will count the time until thunder is heard. If this time is thirty (30) seconds or less, seek shelter. Wait thirty (30) minutes or more after hearing the last thunder before resuming activities
In the event of inclement weather the Tournament Committee reserves the right to
• Relocate and/or reschedule games
• Reduce the scheduled duration of a game
• Change a division structure
• Cancel a game
Unless tournament play has been suspended due to inclement weather conditions, coaches and their teams must appear on the field of play ready to play as scheduled. Failure to appear will result in forfeiture of the game.
In the event of inclement weather forcing play to be halted and preventing the game from being completed during its scheduled time, if at least one-half of the game has been completed, the game will be considered official and the score at that time will stand. Should severe weather occur during the tournament play and the Tournament Committee suspends play, a seek shelter warning will be issued by the sounding of air horns or flags. For the safety of players and spectators, please adhere to this warning and clear the fields quickly and safely.
