Question Number: 15705

League Specific 6/5/2007

RE: Select Under 18

David Brooks of Indianapolis, Indiana US asks...

This question is a follow up to question 13566

Assume there is a lightning and/or thunder delay. Four games are in progress. Team A was already playing under the lights on a lighted field when play was suspended. When play can resume, only 2 fields are available. Does Team A have priority to resume on the field on which it was playing?

Answer provided by Referee Gary Voshol

Normally one would expect that to be true. I suspect someone in your league decided another match was more important than the one that Team A was playing.

Answer provided by Referee Ben Mueller

You would think so. League may have decided something else for a specific reason.
