Indian Summer Lacrosse reserves the right to disqualify any team for infractions of the following policies:

  • Use of Illegal Players: The players listed on the roster at the time the roster is submitted are the only players eligible to play.
  • False Information: Information provided to Indian Summer Lacrosse on your entry form is the basis for our division breakdowns. Any false information is grounds for disqualification.
  • Unnecessary vulgarity or abrasive conduct: Good sportsmanship is expected. Spirit of the game is expected as well. Indian Summer Lacrosse reserves the right to immediately terminate a game and/or escort a player, team, coach or spectator from the premises.  

WEATHER POLICY

In the event of adverse weather conditions or unplayable fields, the Indian Summer Tournament director reserves the right to:

  • Reduce game times to catch up with schedule.
  • Finish games before inclement weather arrives, or to preserve field conditions.

Every attempt will be made to update cancellations on the website or on the answering machine at 410-667-2564.  However, weather conditions can change rapidly and all teams should be prepared to play as soon as weather clears and fields are playable. In the event of cancellation of the entire tournament each team will receive a refund minus an administrative fee.

THUNDER/LIGHTNING POLICY

If thunder of lightning is observed at any location play will suspended immediately and players and fans will be asked to leave the field.  Play will be allowed to resume 20 minutes after the last sound of thunder or lightning is observed. If a game is in progress, the period will end immediately.  If it is the second half, the game will be considered final.  If it is the first half, when play resumes it will be the start of the second half.  Every attempt will be made to begin subsequent games on time.  If the start of the second half of the suspended game delays the onset of the subsequent games the following actions will occur:
  • The game suspended will play one 20 minute running time second half.
  • Subsequent games will begin immediately after preceeding games (warm up on the sidelines prior to the game.)  These games will consist of one 35 minute running time period until games are back on schedule.  Teams will have on 30 second timeout each game.
  • Once games are back on schedule they will revert to two 20 minute running time periods.

We will make every attempt to play every minute of every game but we will not jeopardize the safety of any player.
