Game Scheduling Spring/Fall 2015 Most Rainouts Ever!! Rescheduled 3,000+ games due to inclement weather in 2015 (just soccer!) Plan for 2017: Frontload schedule Rainouts will be rescheduled ASAP on Sunday’s and weeknights Explanation of City of Plano Schedule Guidelines

Game Swaps Prior To the Season Schedule Being Released Each season during the registration process, all coaches are given the opportunity to submit conflict requests prior to the game schedule being released. This procedure is enabled through the Coaches Tools online, http://www.psaplano.org/toolbox/   After the Season Schedule is Released The game schedule changes available are through the GAME SWAP process Once the season game schedule is published, game swap requests should be limited to those situations where a team is unable to field the minimum number of players and would otherwise be forced to forfeit.  In all other cases the games should be played as published. Please follow these guidelines for requesting your one allotted game swap: 

Game Swaps Step 1: Determine any scheduling conflict well in advance. Forfeited games will not be rescheduled.  If a team is unable to field the minimum players at game time then they must forfeit the game.  As a courtesy to the opposing team, please notify PSA if a team is unable to play a game Step 2: Coordinate a game time swap with another game within your division. Coaches should contact via e-mail the other teams of the time they desire to move to. Please coordinate these swaps on your own. Email the appropriate PSA director to get the contact information for the other coach. Game time swaps require that all coaches agree with the change. Swaps must be completed 48 hours in advanced to game day before game reminders are sent out to teams.

Game Swaps Step 3: After arranging the swap, email the appropriate PSA director in order to update the MySAM online schedules to reflect the change. Step 4: In the event that you are unable to arrange a swap and will be forfeiting the game, e-mail the appropriate PSA director 48 hours in advance in order to cancel the fields and referees. No conflict requests or game time swaps are allowed for postseason playoffs or tournament games.

Cancellations If we experience bad weather during the week (Monday – Friday), the city will check the fields sometime early afternoon and notify PSA by 4pm on whether or not the fields are playable. Again this is decided by the city, not PSA. We will then update our PSA Cancellations tab as quickly as possible so those who are scheduled to play the first game of the night will have plenty of notice. If we experience bad weather over the weekend (Saturday and Sunday), PSA league coordinators and directors will check the fields and update by 7am on Saturdays and 12pm on Sundays. If it starts to rain throughout the day, please continue to check the cancellations tab for any updates on game cancellations. Each park & field are different. If you do not see any cancellations for your field, your game is being played.
