INCLEMENT WEATHER
- See the MSYSA Severe Weather policy as posted on the State Cup pages of michiganyouthsoccer.org
- Teams that travel to MSYSA State Cup locations do so at their own risk of games being cancelled due to inclement weather.
- The referee, MSYSA State Cup Chair, and/or State Cup Chair Designee may suspend games when he/she considers the conditions unsafe.
- For all games suspended in the first half or at halftime and that are not able to resume play the same day, the game shall be rescheduled for another day with permission from MSYSA. This only applies when neither team is at fault for the initial stoppage of the game.
- The MSYSA State Cup Chair or the State Cup Chair Designee may determine that a game is complete at any time after the commencement of the second half provided that no team is at fault for the stoppage.
- For any preliminary round game suspended due to weather after the commencement of the second half and that is not able to resume play the same day, the score at the time of suspension shall stand unless an official representative of one of the participating teams notifies the MSYSA State Cup Committee in writing (statecup@michiganyouthsoccer.org) within 24 hours expressing their desire to resume and complete the game. The final decision on whether to accept the score at the time of suspension or whether to allow the game to be resumed rests entirely with the State Cup Committee.
