Wet Weather
Players should ALWAYS turn up to play unless the MWNA Facebook page advises cancellation.
If the Northern Beaches Council has closed the grounds via their Web Site – https://www.northernbeaches.nsw.gov.au/things-to-do/sports-and-recreation/fields-and-venues, or their Facebook site – https://www.facebook.com/beachescouncil, some games may still proceed on the hard courts.
In this instance the MWNA website and Facebook will advise whether any games are cancelled
If all courts are open and rain has developed overnight Friday or Saturday morning:-
Decisions on game cancellations for Saturdays will be posted at the following approximate times
7:00 am for timeslots 7:50am and 9:00am
8:30 am for timeslots 10.25am and 11.50am,
11:00 am for timeslot 1.15pm, and

If Wet weather occurs in the Finals games please refer to the Calendar as Wet Weather make up days are scheduled for Sundays.
Wet Weather Make Up Games
When a week is missed due to Wet Weather- the following week, 2 x half games are played (EXCEPT in PUBLIC SCHOOL HOLIDAYS where they will be played the first game after school is resumed). The game of the current date is played first half and the wet week the second half of the game. Teams go to the court and time indicated on the date in the official fixtures and are directed on the score sheet to the court for the second half game.
N.B. This format is taken as TWO games for points or loss of points and TWO games played.
Umpires for the current date control the two x half games on their allocated court.
NetSetGo games are NOT made up – they strictly play to the game of the day.
