Dear Coaches, Parents & Players,
Please review; CEVA Regional Championship Participant & Spectator Guide
CEVA will be constantly updating this document as more details are finalized.
As of 11am Friday, February 7th 2014, the 12s, 16s and 18s Power League for Saturday and Sunday have been cancelled at ALL facilities.
We have been working on potential reschedule options but sadly, because of the size and complexity of this event this is not possible. All teams will hold their current seed going into the March date. All teams scheduled to play this weekend will receive a pro-rated refund for this cancelled tournament date. March locations will be posted next week.
I can assure you I did not take this decision lightly. Our cancellation policy has served us well for many, many years and we have been very lucky not to have faced a storm like this one on a Power League weekend in association history. This storm is unique in that it is impacting every single team participating. The combination of significant facility cancellations, team cancellations and overall travel concerns has led me to this decision.
I would like to thank each of our facilities for being so responsive and allowing us to badger them the entire week.
Please respond to this email with a simple “Club name – received” upon receipt so that we know you are contacting your coaches and families. We will begin to call club directors if we do not receive a response. We appreciate your communication assistance.
Thank you for your understanding.
Kindest regards,
Breen Goodwin
Executive Director
