Practice Cancellation Policy Due to Heat or Unhealthy Air
It is the policy of Cap Valley FC that physical activity outdoors for children during extreme heat or unhealthy air is not in the best interests of the child. Therefore, the following practice cancellation policies apply to all CVFC teams:
Temperature
If the temperature in the CVFC area is greater than 100 degrees (F) at the time of practice as measured on www.weather.com (using Carmichael, CA as the location), coaches are strongly encouraged to cancel practice or conduct a limited exertion or "walk through" practice. Coaches must keep a close eye on players and if any player is showing signs of suffering from heat related maladies and any child without adequate water or hydration at practice shall no participate even with limited exertion.
If the temperature in the CVFC area is greater than 105 degrees (F) at the time of practice as measured on www.weather.com (using Carmichael, CA as the location), all CVFC practices must be cancelled.
