Coaches, there has been significant schedule changes due to team movement. This format will have 500+ games this weekend, while this is a great value add for teams it does create some schedulign challenges. Normally our scheduling disiplines are pretty consistant, but we've had to adjust for this event. We have spent hours cleaning up the schedules closing gaps and fixing minor issues. Please double check your schedules!
The weather is expected to blow into town in the late morning, with the hope/expectation that it will blow out of the marklet pretty quickly. Diamonds at Daily Park are fully turf fields, so we expect to start games as scheduled Friday. Any updates on weather will be shared on the Weather Alert section of the USFA Mobile App. Each complex will have an on-site Director and UIC to take care of anything that may come up. If you do have something that needs to be addressed make sure you contact the onsite folks.
