Meridian PAL games are seldom canceled due to weather, however games may be canceled by the League during severe storms or when determined necessary by league administration.
In the event of lightning prior to or during the game, the game will be stopped immediately and will be delayed up to 15 minutes. Should more lightning occur within that 15 minute delay, then the game will be abandoned.
In the event of rain or some other storm, we will assess the fields and determine if they are playable. If not, we will notify teams that are scheduled for that time slot that their games are canceled. If we do cancel the first round of games that doesn’t mean the whole day is canceled. We will continue to assess the fields as the day progresses. If you don’t hear from us that your game is canceled, then please plan on being there. If a team doesn’t show up to their game, they will be considered a forfeit.
In the event a game is abandoned in A, AA or AAA. If the game has had 3 full innings, the game will be considered completed and the score will stand. If the game is in the middle of an inning and has to be abandoned, the final score will revert to the score at the end of the last full inning. If the game is abandoned prior to the completion of 3 innings, every effort will be made to reschedule the game, which will need to be replayed in its entirety. PAL cannot guarantee all games will be rescheduled.
