WEEKDAY CANCELLATION POLICY

If ever applicable, and as a matter of policy...

REMINDER: Anytime school is canceled (or has an early dismissal) due to inclement weather, during the week (i.e., on a weekday) there are no VABA practices.   Anytime school is in session, there IS practice (even prior to a holiday break).  Unless otherwise notified, in these cases, your practices will be canceled (no make-ups).  Please be mindful of this next week, depending on the weather and pending decisions from local schools.  Delayed openings mean school is open.

Please check the websites for your school/school system (for weekday practices next week) - if school is open, then practice is on...if school is closed, then practice is canceled.  No email or notification will go out - teams/coaches will have to check their respective websites regarding school closings, etc. for practices next week.  Any changes/updates to this policy, specific to your team's practice arrangements, would only be communicated directly from a VABA representative.
