Texas Xtreme FC

At Texas Xtreme FC safety is overly important to us. For the Safety of each Player and responsibility of our staff, the Following weather policies will be implemented.

If at any time you see Lightning, Please postpone practice until you don’t see lightning for 20 Minutes or Cancel the Session.

Facts:

1. All thunderstorms produce lightning and are dangerous.
2. Lightning often strikes as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall.
3. You are in imminent danger from lightning if you can hear thunder.  Thunder is caused by lightning.
4. Outdoors is the most dangerous place to be in a lightning storm.
 

Blue Skies and Lightning

Lightning can travel sideways for up to 10 miles. Even when the sky looks blue and clear, be cautious. If you hear thunder, take cover. At least 10% of lightning occurs without visible clouds in the sky.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF THUNDER or LIGHTNING;
1. Postpone the game (or practice) immediately; do not wait for rain.
2. Get into a car or a building.
3. Do not stand under a tree.
4. Avoid metal (bicycle, pole, goal, fence, bleachers etc.).

During the cold weather months, the following policies are in affect.

Sessions will be cancelled if:

• Below 40 degrees and the session is at night
• Possibility of Dangerous road conditions
