As a member league of US Youth Soccer, we follow their guidelines and recommendations when it comes to player development & safety.
US Youth Soccer Heat Guidelines state that no soccer training or playing of games should take place when the heat index is 90 or greater, which they refer to as "Alert Level Black". It is at this level where players can get heat exhaustion and even heat stroke can occur.
Therefore, for the safety of all of players, we will not have games when the heat index at game time is projected to be 90 or greater.
If games are to be cancelled, RYSL parents can find out in the following ways:
We will schedule make up games within the season for games missed due to too high of a heat index. Parents will be given notice as to when the make up games will occur.
Inclement Weather Policies:
Soccer is a game played in the rain. We will cancel only for severe or threatening weather, or if the Park District closes the fields for poor field conditions.
The following is our inclement weather procedures. Rockford Park District contacts the RYSL League Administrator and makes a decision as to if games will be played. A decision on weather will be made no later than 4:00pm. If games are to be cancelled, RYSL parents can find out in the following ways:
We will schedule make up games within the season for games missed due to weather cancellation. Parents will be given notice as to when the make up games will occur.
Coaches decide if their trainings are canceled due to inclement weather, and notify their own teams.
