SEVERE WEATHER CANCELLATION POLICY
Schools should be aware of the fact that most often there are no available dates at Manley Field House or Hamilton College to reschedule weather-cancelled meets.
1. When the Syracuse Schools are closed because of snow (not wind chill factor) the meet must be cancelled.
2. If 50% or more of the participating schools are closed due to any severe weather, the meet will be cancelled.
3. If 50% or more schools close during the school day after starting school, the meet will be cancelled.
For all meets that are cancelled before school, the Indoor Track coordinators or their committee will notify the assignors, the schools, radio and TV, etc.
For meets that are cancelled during the day, the Indoor Track coordinators or their designee will call the Section III office at 451-4588, who in turn will notify the assignors, schools, and radio and TV. A call to the Onondaga League President’s office will aid in this notification.
Participating school Athletic Directors must call the Section III office at 451-4588 when their school district closes early or if all after-school events are cancelled on the day of an Indoor Track meet. This will aid us in determining if we should cancel or run the meet.
