All good points...with regard to $$$. No issues, in the first case, it never rained...so no money spent on extra preparation or repairs. Today....no additional money would be spent....just drag it, line it and play. Our field isn't nice enough for anyone to worry about "damaging" it...which is what makes these situations all the worse...lol. You can't hurt it. Coach and his dad, and some parents would have been at the field today....no cost to anyone. I've spent hundreds of hours prepping fields while my son has grown up....we have a junior high field that myself and my friend essentially maintained on our own for 3 years while our kids were playing. That's part of why I knew that yesterday's wind and today's sunshine would dry the field up quick enough that we could play. Our AD has absolutely no idea about field maintenance...which is why him calling games so early makes even less sense.
