Please do not cancel games the day before based upon forecasts. If you are curious about field closure, please call the parks department hotline, 608.267.8787 If the parks dpt deems the fields unplayable this hotline will be updated and matches must be rescheduled. Weekdays it will be updated by 2pm, weekends and holidays it will be updated by 8am. Field conditions will vary based upon the time and place of the game.
For Regent/Shorewood In-House (U6-u8) teams:
The decision is up to the coaches. Reschedules are by mutual agreement between coaches. If there is a conflict over a field between a rescheduled game and a practice, the game takes precedence.
U6-U8 Coaches should make a determination as early as possible on the day of the match as to whether or not recent or current weather conditions warrant considering the cancellation of a game. This allows both coaches ample opportunity to notify all players and parents.
Regent/Shorewood U9/U10 in-house games:
Once the preliminary schedule is out, there will be an 7-10 day reconciliation period. During this reconciliation period IT IS UP TO INDIVIDUAL COACHES to check their schedules and with their teams to make certain there are no conflicts. IF there is a conflict and you need to reschedule a game THE ONLY TIME YOU CAN DO THIS IS DURING THIS PERIOD. Contact the opposing coach and come to an agreement of time, date and place. Send the request, using only this form. The request is NOT official until you get confirmation from one of the Alliance club directors or directly from Demosphere. If there is an Alliance wide match cancellation due to the parks dpt closing the fields, teams can reschedule these matches using ONLY the above procedure. Following this procedure will ensure field reservation and referee notification.
All matches are expected to be played. If there are extenuating circumstances where you must cancel, the opposing coach AND your clubs Director MUST be notified 24hours before kick off. This will allow us time to notify our young referees that the match has been cancelled. If you cancel within 24 hours of the scheduled kick off, the team canceling will be expected to pay the young referee the $15.
For MAYSA Teams U11+
MAYSA does not make the decision cancel games due to weather. Since MAYSA is so wide spread (Dane County and beyond) it is not possible to monitor the conditions of all the fields. MAYSA does make the decision on games at Reddan Soccer Park, which MAYSA may decide to close due to field conditions. MAYSA will notify coaches and managers by e-mail if that happens. Otherwise the decision rests with the field coordinator for the home club.
For MAYSA leagues, after 7am on the day of the game, the decision to cancel a match rests with the referee.
Once the game has started, the decision to stop play rests solely with the referee. If the game is called prior to half time, the game is to be re-played in its entirety. If the game is called at halftime or any point thereafter, the game is considered a complete game and the final score stands.
MAYSA strongly discourages any game be cancelled due to anticipated weather conditions.
Please see the Scheduling Policies page at maysa.org for details on rescheduling a MAYSA league game. **you will need to click on the GAME DAY RULES Tab, half way down the page.
Thunder/Lightning Reminder: At the field, the decision to stop, suspend or terminate a game lies exclusively with the referee regarding any severe weather conditions. Once a referee suspends the game because of thunder/lightning, all participants are to move away from the fields and into a storm shelter or vehicle. Referees are reminded to keep participants away from the field and not to restart the game until at least 30 minutes following the last detectable thunder or lightning.
A player may sub for another team within Regent. MAYSA/WYSA rules do not allow for intra club player passing. If the team in need is a tryout team and match play requires a player card, the player subbing for you will need a player card made by MAYSA. Please contact the MAYSA office to acquire this card. vabshere@maysa.org
