In the case of severe inclement weather, the Tournament Committee shall have the authority to change the format as follows:
- Relocate, reschedule or cancel any game
- Consider as complete a game that has been called by an official once 10 minutes of the game has been played
- Cancel any preliminary games that have no bearing on the selection of division winners
- Reduce the duration of any game as needed
- FIFA Penalty Kicks
For a playoff or final game that is suspended due to inclement weather the score at the time of suspension will stand if 10 minutes of the game has been played. If the score is tied and/or the game cannot be re-started or played due to the above circumstances and a Champion needs to be determined, the tournament will revert to the final group standings. In the event of a tie (on points) between the two teams who are in the Finals, the tie breakers as described in section 13 will be used to determine the Champion.
Please note: At no point will the weather delay be more than 3 hours. The Tournament Director will give updates every 30 mins.through the Got Sport scheduling portal to coaches and managers. Coaches and managers are responsible for communicating this information effectively with their team families to ensure they are updated throughout the delay.
