Weather Policy
The referee has the final say on canceling or delaying games because of weather conditions. Parents ALWAYS have the right to not have their child play if they deem it unsafe for the child.
The following policy, based upon BAY Lakes SAY guidelines that were adopted on 04/18/2012, will be followed by all AYSA referees and AYSA coaches:
Extreme heat. When the temperature is at 90 degrees and the heat index is at a dangerous level, 5:30 or earlier games will be suspended by AYSA, Bay-Lakes, or the referee and may be rescheduled. Later matches may still be played but should incorporate longer and/or more frequent breaks. Plenty of fluids should be available.
Extreme cold. When the temperature drops below 30 degrees AND the wind chill index drops below zero, then the match should be suspended by AYSA, Bay-Lakes, or the referee and may be rescheduled at another time.
Lightning/Thunder: In the event of a storm, play must be stopped and suspended by the referee at the field until the danger has passed using the following criteria as a minimum.
-Sighting of a lightning flash OR the hearing of the associated thunder shall be reason to stop and suspend a game.
-Play shall not be resumed prior to 30 minutes after the last sighting of lightning OR the last sound of thunder heard.
Visibility: When standing at one goal you can’t see the other goal, the game may be suspended by the referee at the field.
Wind: When the ball is placed on level ground and it does not remain stationary, the game may be suspended by the referee at the field.
Field Conditions: When a field is in poor or dangerous playing condition, games may be suspended or relocated by AYSA, Bay-Lakes, or the referee
Severe wet weather. AYSA, Bay-Lakes, or the referee may cancel a game if wet weather has made the field unsafe.
NOTE: If a game is in a time constraint, such as other games being played on the same field later, the earlier game might not have the liberty of waiting the 30 minutes to simply delay, but instead be cancelled.

Players and coaches are reminded to show up at the field if they do not receive a
phone call canceling the game. Parents always have the right to pull their child off
the field if they think there is a danger. In age groups where there are no referees,
the coaches will decide if the game should be canceled.
