INFO ON GAME CANCELLATIONS & INCLEMENT WEATHER FROM JAIME COLON
Practices - when schools are closed early or for the entire day due to inclement weather (Mon-Fri) - the gyms are closed - No Practices, No Makeups. Please remember....this does not change from one cancellation to the next.
Weekend Game Cancellations
1. First and foremost, check websites for each league...most will post an updated message on game cancellations.
2. If the Lakota district decides to close schools, I will contact leagues with Lakota team participation on our cancellations and they will (a) post a cancellation message on their website and/or (b) call in to channel 9 news to have the cancellation message added to the telestrator at the bottom of the screen.
3. I will contact our website coordinator to place a cancellation message on the Tbird website for applicable leagues/locations. Tbird website http://www.tbirdhoops.org/default.htm
4. If another district(s) decides to cancel their scheduled games (road games) they will follow a similar process.
5. McGee's (Court 4 Sports) and Midwest Hoops (Sports Plus) can be contacted directly for game cancellations.
6. Best way to be notified of all cancellations - is to review the TV cancellation messages displayed on channel 9 news. You can also review cancellations on the channel 9 website (updated each 60 seconds): http://www.wcpo.com/default.aspx Closings: http://www.wcpo.com/schoolclosings/default.aspx
