|  Inclement weather policy for the Winchester Classic www.weather.com Inclement Weather Teams should have on Tournament record at least two mobile-phone contact numbers for direct communication with Tournament officials. Please have the team manager provide these numbers at registration. The safety of players and spectators is the top priority. Every effort will be made to play scheduled games on time. The Tournament Director is responsible, and will determine, when and if postponed games will be rescheduled. The Tournament Director reserves the right to order the following changes in the event of inclement weather: �� Relocate and/or reschedule a match. �� Reduce the scheduled duration of a match. �� Change the division structure. �� Cancel a match. �� Cancel any or all matches. �� Change the Finals format. Under no circumstances whatsoever will the Tournament Committee, including WYSL, FC Kentucky, its affiliates, sponsors or members be responsible for expenses incurred (including tournament entry fee) by any team. This includes the unfortunate situation whereby the tournament or any match is cancelled in part or in whole. Entry fees are non-refundable. In the event of inclement weather forcing playing times to be altered or preventing matches from being completed during the scheduled times, the score will stand if at least one half has been played. In the case of matches halted prior to the end of the first half, the Tournament Director reserves the right to declare the match final, thereby counting the score at the time the match was halted. Regardless of weather conditions, teams and coaches must be at the match site and ready to play at the time the match is scheduled. Failure to appear constitutes a forfeit. Should inclement weather or field conditions prevent the completion of matches during the tournament; the following procedures will be used to determine the final places of teams within a bracket: �� If any team within an age division has completed fewer than two matches, all teams within the age division will be evaluated based on the first match. The team with the best record will be deemed the Champion. The team with the second best record will be the Finalist. �� If any team within an age division has completed fewer than three matches, teams within a group will be evaluated based on the first two matches. The team with the best record in each age group will be deemed the winner of that group. The team with the second best record will be deemed the Finalist. �� If all teams within an age division have completed three matches, the team with the best record is declared the Champion. In the event of a tie, the criteria detailed above will be used to determine the Champion. If weather or field conditions prevent the use of penalty kicks, a coin flip will be used to determine the Champion. The home team calls the toss. |
