Lightning/Thunder Policy
Attention Spring Officials - Thunder and Lightning Policy:
Following is a reminder of Section XI policy regarding thunder and lightning:
1. Whenever weather or other conditions cause the official(s) to interrupt a contest, the official(s) shall make every effort to resume and complete the contest, with full consideration of the weather and site conditions (as they affect safety and playing conditions). The official(s) shall wait a minimum of 30 minutes from the time of the interruption before considering the cessation of play.
2. When thunder is identified at the site of an outdoor contest, the official(s) will suspend play immediately and wait a minimum of 30 minutes from the time of the interruption before considering the cessation of play. The official(s) will then make a decision whether to cease play for that day or resume the contest.
3. If lightning is observed at the site of an outdoor contest by the official(s) 15 or fewer minutes prior to the scheduled start of that contest, the official(s) and the responsible school authorities shall not permit that contest to be played on that date.
4. If lightning is observed at the site of an outdoor contest by the official(s) during the playing of a contest, the official(s) shall immediately cease play for the day. The rules of the particular sport shall determine whether the contest is "official" or must be resumed at a later date.

Bad Weather Procedures
Anytime there is questionable weather conditions, umpires are required by contract to contact the home school to verify the assignment. You are required to call at least 2 hours before the game time. Get the name of the person who you spoke in the AD's office. Failure to follow these procedures and going to contest, will nullify your ability to receive compensation, if there is a subsequent cancelation at the field.
If you are told to go to the game by the AD's office and it is canceled @ the field, make sure you have the home coach sign the Section XI Pink slip.
