Rain Policy Needed
TD?s please correct me if I am wrong.
NSA, ASA, and sanctioning bodies we need your help. A tournament rain policy needs to be implemented and enforced. In a 4 division tournament with 12 teams per division a tournament director will save about $3500 in umpire fees to cancel Sunday ball (11 games x 4 div x $40/ump x 2 umps=$3520).
We are all for TD's making some profit for their cause and we greatly appreciate their hard work, but canceling tournaments with out refunds is stealing. Too many teams/families have worked too hard and traveled too far to have their tournaments canceled with out every effort to keep them going. Why should a TD's stop this profitable trend. A few bad posts on OFC is not incentive to stop.
A set refund policy should be mandatory. How about 90% if no games played, 70% if one game, 50% if 2 games, 25% if 3 games and 0% if 4 or more games are played. Please enforce game minimums of at least 75 minutes too. Come on NSA, ASA, ... please do something to help our sport.
It should be noted that some TD?s do their best to beat the rain, but a few too many seem to be too eager to call it a day this season.
