Inclement Weather
The Lakeshore Youth Soccer Complex is an outdoor facility, which means inclement weather is always a possibility. SWM Rec does not generally close the complex for heat, cold, wind, rain, or snow.
In the event of severe weather that may impact an entire day and jeopardize the safety of attendees, the league reserves the right to cancel all games and close the soccer complex. In this instance, parents and Coaches are notified via e-mail, Facebook, and the SWM Rec website.
All play will be stopped if lightning is spotted. Play cannot resume until 30 minutes after the last visible lightning strike.
Heat and Humidity Policy
Weather in our beautiful state can fluctuate between extremes of cold and hot. In the case of elevated heat and humidity levels, we follow the guidelines set forth by our governing body, Michigan State Youth Soccer Association, and the Michigan High School Athletic Association.

Game Cancellations and Rescheduling
Games may be canceled and rescheduled at the discretion of the Coach. If this occurs, the Coach is responsible for contacting all affected parties and for rescheduling the game.
If SWM Rec closes the facility and cancels all games due to dangerous weather, it is the responsibility of SWM Rec – with input from the coaches – to reschedule the impacted games.
