Supply and demand. There are thousands of kids involved in sports around here and there is no charge for using the fields. It is strictly supported by tax payers and commercial sponsors. It's a classic example of "Build it and they will come"! In a situation like you said, they would just have to schedule it after the regular planned season. They will let them reschedule, just stay off my wet lawn is the rule and is strictly followed. You oughta see the baseball fields that are public supported around here. The would put a major league ball field look like a sandlot. The infields and outfields are like carpets.
I don’t know what the park fields look like after today, but from what I heard from kiddos teammates is our club fields didn’t look too bad. I’m hoping it’s the same for the parks.
If soccer canceled every time it rained then kids would not get enough soccer.lol Soccer season is Spring and Fall.. both generally rainy times here. The rule is ‘no lightening’ not ‘no rain’... but, usually heavy rains see cancelations for the well being of both players and the fields.
