General winter weather notice regarding trainging at KUA:
Weather can be crazy in our neck of the woods. Use your judgement on snowy/icy days regarding the safety of travel from your home to training at KUA. Coach Charles Mhlauri lives on the KUA campus, and Coach Dan Weintraub works there, so we will only cancel due to blizzard/ice storm conditions across the entire area.

Per our Severe Weather Guidelines Policy (below), Team Managers/Coaches will contact parents by 2:00pm on training days if practice is canceled. Parents should regularly check the club website and their email if weather is questionable. Please call your Team Manager or Coach FIRST if you are uncertain, or weather conditions degrade just prior to practice time.

LIGHTNING SC's SEVERE WEATHER GUIDELINES:

1. If it is raining, training sessions and games are NOT cancelled. However, if there is standing water on the field (typically due to excessive rain over a period of days) or the threat of severe weather, cancellation or postponement is likely.
2. Team Managers will contact parents by 2:00pm on training days if practice is canceled. Parents should regularly check the club website and their email if weather is questionable. Please call your Team Manager or Coach FIRST if you are uncertain, or weather conditions degrade just prior to practice time.
3. In the event of thunder and lightning, LSC coaches will immediately clear players from the fields and seek shelter. If a shelter is not nearby, then players will be moved to the safety of cars. Coaches will wait 30 minutes after the last thunder or lightning before resuming training.  

Parents:  If the weather degrades severely during a training session, please make arrangements to pick up your player as soon as possible.

Clothing recommendation: wear dri-fit training tops, fleece, or breathable rain gear, not classic rain slickers which get very hot as they do not breathe.
