Heat & AQI Policy


Part 1: General AQI Policy
The league will monitor AQI daily when conditions require it. Communication will be sent to the coaches/managers for all teams at 3pm informing teams of RGS allocated field status, to include if fields are closed or scheduled for reinspect. The AirNow app will be used as the official monitoring system. The full City of Roseville number will be used, not individual neighborhood numbers.
Reinspect: If the AQI is over 100, the League will enter “reinspect” and teams are responsible for checking the AQI numbers before the start of practice and each half hour during practice. If the City of Roseville’s AQI reaches over 150, then the coach/manager should immediately end practice.
The Board may also send additional communication via the email and text feature of Team Sideline to cancel practices if the City of Roseville’s AQI is over 150 from the AirNow.gov app.
Fields Closed: If the AQI for the City of Roseville is over 150, RGS allocated fields are closed for all League activities for all divisions and levels of play. If a “reinspect” email or text is sent, and conditions worsen to over the 150 threshold, the Board will work to their best ability to inform the League that the RGS allocated field status has been updated to “Closed” and all League activities should end immediately.
If teams are playing on a non-RGS allocated field (i.e., a neighboring league game or tournament), the team will defer to the hosting league’s AQI policy. The team coaching staff is empowered to make decisions that best protect the safety of the athletes. 


Part 2: Weather and Field Conditions
Board Members and umpires will have the final decision pertaining to weather and playable field conditions for RGS allocated fields.

Part 3: Temperature
Any RGS outdoor practices are to be canceled when temperatures reach 110 degrees Fahrenheit or higher at the time of practice.
