Wet Weather
A copy of the North Canberra Netball Competition (NCNC) wet weather policy for NCNC is available on the CNA and BNA websites and here (PDF). The NCNC competition is run outdoors and the preference is not to cancel games. However, player/umpire safety is paramount and if the courts at either venue are deemed to be unsafe, matches will need to be cancelled.
The decision to cancel matches will be made round by round unless the weather is severe and the forecast conditions are without doubt and the whole day is cancelled. Decisions regarding play of games at the Lyneham and Charnwood venues are made in light of the conditions prevailing at each location at the time.
Wherever practical, advance notice will be posted on the CNA/BNA Facebook Pages. Messages will be reposted on our Facebook as soon as possible after we receive notification of cancellations.
If there is no notification on social media or websites, teams should report to the courts.
Washed out rounds that do not achieve a result will be re-scheduled as half-matches during the subsequent round. For example, if Round 3 is washed out, it will be replayed as a half game on the same date as Round 4 which will also be played as a half game. Washed out rounds are not re-scheduled for modified netball as it is non-competitive.
