Heat Policy
Training maybe cancelled if the predicted temperature is 33 degrees or higher.
E.g. Team trains on Wednesday. Tuesday’s evening news predicts Wednesday’s top temperature to be 33 degrees or higher = no training on Wednesday. If teams decide to train in such temperatures, drink breaks need to be allowed more frequently. If the temperatures are at a degree that the club feels are extreme, the coordinators will let teams know that training will be cancelled for the night.
Team Managers – please communicate with the coach and players when this situation occurs. (Please advise your Coordinator that you are not going to train on the night Boys - Jan 0428 210 869, Girls - Jacinta 0433 375 339) with your team number and time.
