    Game Cancellation/Change Procedure

    2023 Scheduling Goals:

     

    A) Everything matches!

    • Your teams schedule - what the programs/parents/coaches know - AKA what you give the league.
    • CTYLA Sports Engine - what the league knows, what we give the officials.
    • Arbiter - what the officials know.

    B) Everyone knows whats happening!

    How this will be accomplished:

     

    *Before you request a game change you must talk with your opponent and agree on all changes.  

    Weekly Game Confirmations:

    1) FOTF will cross reference what is posted on Sports Engine and what is in Arbiter to identify any issues.

    2) Programs will confirm all of their games are showing  Sports Engine and Arbiter for the week.  Report all issues via game change form by Wednesday of each week, at the latest. 

    3) CTLOA will alert CTYLA and effected programs if games cannot be covered.  These games will/may be  postponed, cancelled and or rescheduled by the programs.  Programs will resubmitted games via game change form.
