Weather Update: Sat. Feb 15 - 11:00pm
We continue to monitor the weather
closely, and have developed contingency plans which can be implemented if necessary,
on Sunday. Please read for more details...
PLEASE NOTE: while
the City of Barrie has cancelled all city-run recreation program and activities
for Sunday, February 16 until 1:00pm, this DOES NOT IMPACT ice permits. The
City has assured us that arenas will remain open, and our Winter Classic tournament
can proceed so long as it remains safe to do so.
While our hope
is to allow as many games as possible to continue, parents are encouraged to
consider their individual travel circumstances and to make safe choices.
** Please allow extra time to allow for safe travel
to your games on Sunday, especially in the morning.
** Where necessary, the start of games may be
delayed up to 30 minutes to allow for the safe arrival of a minimum number of
players.
** Games will be cancelled on a case-by-case basis
if teams are unable to travel to the arena.
** For divisions with cancelled games, the
Tournament Committee will review the remaining schedule and may adjust the
brackets, format and remaining schedule for any division if deemed necessary.
The focus will be on finding solutions which do not unfairly penalize teams as
the result of a cancelled game.
** Teams unable to travel to game on Sunday are asked to have coach or manager please reach out to [email protected]. (Messages should include team name, OWHA number and division, along
with the time and location of the game.)
Be safe, and cross your fingers.
