☀️ ⚽ Weekly Sports Schedule Notice ⚾ 🏃

As we head into another week of action, please note: all outdoor sporting events are dependent upon the WBGT (Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature).

👉 The WBGT is a safety measurement that combines temperature, humidity, wind speed, sun angle, and cloud cover to determine how hot it feels and the level of heat stress on athletes.

Our priority is keeping athletes safe, so schedules may be adjusted if conditions reach unsafe levels. Thank you for your understanding and support! 🧡🖤
