Relentless Cancellation Policies

Weather related issues are a persistent presence regarding club volleyball in Central Pennsylvania. We have access to no better weather related information that you and we are not weather or travel safety experts. We also often have limited options to make up either tournaments or practice times and refunds are typically not available for missed events. It is your responsibility to know and adjust for weather in your travel plans. If you plan to travel in winter weather, please take precautions, allow yourself additional travel time and never travel in conditions that you do not feel are safe for you and your family. However, we do ask that you communicate clearly, directly and promptly with your coach regarding your weather related travel decisions.

WEATHER RELATED CANCELLATIONS - It will be a rare instance when we cancel practice or tournament attendance due to weather. Normally if there is snow or bad weather we will leave it up to your discretion as to whether you feel safe traveling. If you do not feel safe, DON'T TRAVEL! It will NOT be held against your daughter if you choose to stay home in questionable weather.

SCASD CANCELLATIONS - (ALL SCASD GYMS- does not include C3 Sports)
If a weeknight practice is scheduled for a SCASD gym and school is canceled, dismisses early or cancels evening activities - we are AUTOMATICALLY CANCELED - SCASD policy. We typically will not make up practices missed due to weather. If we have a string of missed practices, we will try to arrange a time and place to get in the gym somewhere when available or utilize our Open Gyms as make ups.

WEEKEND PRACTICE CANCELLATIONS - Weekend practice cancellations at SCASD schools are left to our discretion and will typically be handled as above under "WEATHER RELATED CANCELLATIONS".

TOURNAMENT CANCELLATIONS - Again, it will be a rare instance when a tournament is completely cancelled due to weather. Also we will typically not cancel attendance at a tournament. Please be advised and make time to adjust for weather conditions in your travel plans. On a rare occasion a tournament may be cancelled at the last minute. We do not have any control over this so if you are making hotel reservations for the night before please be aware of the cancellation deadline of your hotel. If there is uncertainty regarding the weather please be in communication with your coach regarding travel plans. We will try to get as much information in advance as possible from the tournament directors.
There may be poor weather forecast for a only portion of your anticipated travel time so please make adjustments accordingly. Often it may snow heavily the evening before a tournament but the roads are clear the next morning, or vice-verse.

YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFETY AND WELL-BEING OF YOUR DAUGHTER AND YOUR FAMILY. DO NOT TRAVEL IN WEATHER THAT YOU FEEL UNSAFE TRAVELING. IT IS JUST VOLLEYBALL!
