Grand Slam Sports Tournaments
Event Canceled
This event has been canceled due to impending weather.
Coaches & Admins,
Grand Slam has canceled all events for this Saturday. We tried to wait it out to see if the forecast would change, but it has not.
To address the Friday night question, if we can't play Saturday, playing Friday doesn't help.
We all know, it's possible it does nothing tomorrow. However, we can only go on what we see in front of us. As stated before the safety of the players & all involved is top priority.
The last thing we want to do is to start the tournament & have people pay to get in and then end up canceling.
Based on the forecast we would be dealing with rain, possible hail, heavy wind etc...which leads to delays and playing late into the night or having to cancel during the event.
We will be posting another Saturday only event to make up for this one. It will be scheduled for the first week in June.
We hope all of you understand & enjoy your Easter.
Coaches & Admins, as you all know, there is stormy weather forecasted for Saturday. We are going to monitor the forecast & make a decision by 2:00 tomorrow on whether to play or cancel.
We will cancel if we feel like we will be battling heavy ran & lightning all day.
As of now, the forecast gets worse as the day goes. So, if we do play we will be playing on a modified schedule in order to finish before 5:00. Also, Shiloh games will move to the Quarry.
If you have played with us long enough, you know we don't mind being creative to make sure you get games in. If we go to a modified schedule, most divisions will be on a 2 game guarantee and only top 2 teams from pool will play a championship. Or we could go 1 pool play game and single elimination.
All scenarios will be in play. This is not ideal for anyone. We want to make sure the safety of the players, coaches, fans, & our staff comes first.
We ask that you understand & be flexible when this decision is made. We want you to get games in, but we also have to be realistic.
If we go to a modified schedule, teams who don't get a 3rd game will receive a partial credit to the next event or you can get a cash refund for 1 game on site.
Again, a decision on these things will be made by 2:00 on Friday.
