We play soccer in the rain, we play soccer when it’s cold, and we play soccer when the fields are open. If it is raining and the fields are open, players need to go to their games. River Soccer Club only closes the fields if there is a chance the fields will be damaged (standing water, new grass). The decision and announcement will be made two hours prior to the first game (around 8am). 

Should there be a cancellation there will be:
1. An email blast to all participants in the program.
2. An announcement banner on the top of the RSC website home page
3. An announcement on our social media platforms.
