Extreme Weather Policy

Extreme Weather and Cancellations

Cancellations due to wet weather are announced on radio station MIX 102.3 in the 8.00am news bulletin.  If no announcement is made, it is expected that sports will take place, therefore, all participants should attend the venue at the designated hour, at which time the Director of Activities (or designated representative) will make a decision as to the suitability of conditions for play to proceed with or without modifications to the playing conditions.

Please do not contact the Radio Station direct.

If the temperature for the forthcoming SATURDAY is forecast to be 40 degrees or more in the Friday’s Advertiser all Saturday sport will be cancelled.

If the forecast temperature is less than 40 degrees but conditions are considered as extreme, the ISSA Sporting Administrator in consultation with the Chair of Executive and Coordinators will inform both Coordinators and Principals of schools by either/or fax/email if sport is to be cancelled. The Director of Activities will advise via the Sport this Week page on this website if this is the case.
