It looks to be another rainy weekend in Texas and this means that games could be cancelled, moved etc. There are many parties involved in TRU games, so please make sure everyone knows if something changes.
Clubs
- We recommend you contact the assigned referee PRIOR to the match and ASAP if there are any changes or cancellations. Review your assigned referee via the TRU Calendar on the TRU website. Click your match and then click More Details.
- **CANCELLATIONS or TIME/LOCATION changes only, please contact Wendy Young (TRU Admin) so I can update the TRU Calendar.
- Please also confirm that your Club Contact information is accurate on the TRU website. Access your Divisions contacts and then update the google document, it is editable for everyone.
