Game Statuses

Game Statuses:

The following system functions apply to these game statuses: Rainout, Canceled, Forfeit, Suspended, and Postponed:

• When changing a game status, you will be brought to a Confirm Assignments page. If you do not send out emails from this page, then the respective statuses for the officials’ will not change. If you navigate away from the page without sending notifications then the officials’ statuses remain the same.

• When a game has been marked Rainout, Canceled, Forfeited, Suspended or Postponed, all the official slots are changed to “published” and the game will then show in the “Future games with issues” filter.  As indicated in the previous bullet, this only happens if you select the option to notify the officials after changing the game status.

• Rainout, Canceled, Forfeited, Suspended or Postponed games are automatically “accepted” when officials go to their schedule page. This lets the account administrator(s) know that the official has viewed the change. When all the officials have seen the game it will no longer show in the “Future games with issues” filter because all of the slots will be marked “accepted”.

• Officials can receive text messages to notify them of the games changes.  Text message notifications follow the same rules as described above.

Below are descriptions of system functions specific to a particular game status.
