Tom,
Can you please make sure to either post the cancellation notice or update the phone line by Saturday night?
Thx!

Should be a swamp. Confidence level is low.

If we feel the fields will be unplayable Sunday by Saturday night, we can make that call.
Otherwise we`ll make the call early Sunday morning.
If it rains all day we`ll probably call the game tonight. If the forecast sticks - cloudy with wind, the fields may be okay tomorrow morning (sunny and clear).
In fact, youth football postponed todays afternoon Wakefield games to tomorrow afternoon at Wakefield - so they intend to use that field tomorrow afternoon.
We`re not using Wakefield tomorrow morning, so that eliminates the one "sensitive" field. Herndon and Hook are pretty durable, Greenbriar fields are somewhere in between.
I`m going to go look at Greenbriar this afternoon - because we`ll be using those fields as a bellweather.
The point is still that we give the schedule every opportunity to go forward. If erred to the side of caution and cancelled on Saturday night when Sunday was questionable - we`d still be in week 4, and you`d be playing in a 5-team league.

Good call Tom, you guys do a great job especially this fall on the fields. There were a few games this year I thought would have been canceled but the fields were fine.
I work right near Hook so I did a drive by. The field looks like we could almost play right now, the dirt in the infields just have to dry. Should be no problem by tomorrow morning.

Hook field looks real good, lets rumble! If both teams show up, it will be a good good game.

Rhinos/Dawgs play at Greenbriar, along with Rage/United and Dietze/Spalding. Any field inspectors at that field?
Don`t forget the clocks.

I was there with my son and friends today. Was a little damp, but just fine for tomorrow.
FYI-Rhinos and Dawgs play here, not at hook.

The field in Herndon has no grass. I`m not kidding. That field is dirt and rocks. I actually hope it rains a little to soften it up...

We`re a go for tomorrow, I checked GB this afternoon. Field #6 had no standing water, field 5 was closed but almost dry (this around 3:00 PM) - it will be open tomorrow.
