NO GAME TODAY!

Posted by Ruben Costa on Aug 26 2011 at 05:00PM PDT

As Director of Officials NEFL, I am ceasing all operations in the NEFL this weekend based on the following. · Severity of the impending hurricane ·

The updated time frame for impact · The safety of both players and officials · The travel distance involved for some teams · The priority of players and officials to be with their families and attending to their homes Some teams have already cancelled their games and moved them to alternate dates. This most likely will impact the start of the playoff schedule. It is in the best interest of all teams that all teams start the playoffs on the same date. Rules are in place to address such situations.

1. Using Labor Day weekend.

2. Moving cancelled games to the end of the season Forcing teams to play under adverse conditions is not in the best interest of the NEFL. High School and College administrators place players and officials safety as the # 1 priority.

Bob Oreal, Supervisor of Officials NEFL
