Soccer is played in all weather conditions and many players will remember that some of their most memorable matches were played in terrible weather! That being said, games and training sessions are at times cancelled because of stormy weather and/or wet soggy fields.

The Kingston Clippers Soccer Club rents all of its fields from the City of Kingston and Queen’s University and is subject to the field closure policies of these organizations. If the fields are closed, all training sessions and games on those fields are cancelled. The most timely way of getting information about field closures are the Clippers website, Facebook page or Twitter account.

Even if the fields have not been closed by the City or Queens, inclement weather may still impact the decision to start  and continue  a game or training session.  Activities should not be started or should be stopped for thunder and lightning or if the grass fields are so wet that continuing to play will seriously damage the field.  The decision to cancel a game in the event of inclement weather is the responsibility of the referee. At team training sessions, the decision to stop the session will be made the coach supervising the activity. Referees and coaches are encouraged to err on the side of caution in all situations.
