A note about weather cancellations

Weather in Colorado can vary incredibly, especially in spring—rain, snow, and high winds possible. We will assess the playability of the fields each week. If games must be canceled, we will make an announcement on the website, on our hotline (303-661-0664), to gru-chat, and to the captains no later than one (1) hour before the start of scheduled games. Spring season 2008, we have the option to cancel only early games when it appears that conditions may improve. If a given round of games is canceled, captains and their teams will have the option to reschedule their games for later in the day or on another day as a make-up. We appreciate your understanding when games are canceled on a day that turns out to be lovely. The decision is often made outside of our control and/or far in advance due to the need to make notifications.
