       THE CANCELATION POLICY FOR RR, LADDER PLAY, GP, BEGINNING LESSONS



      PPPA Members, 

      The upcoming months may present cancelations of our plans and here is the cancelation policy for the education programs:

      • Temperature 40 degrees or below factoring in the windchill forecasted. 
      • Any type of moisture on the courts, rain, ice, snow, etc. 
      • Wind speeds of 20 or more forecasted. 
      • Lightning within 5 miles from your courts, once we stop for a lightning delay, please do not restart until 30 minutes from the last lightning strike. 
      • Any other dangerous conditions that may come up in the course of play. 
      • We cancel for the safety of all PPPA members. 
      • Once the activity is canceled, players may play at their own risk. 
      • If your coordinator cancels a program, please respect their decision.

      Direct any further discussion to Dan Lovelace at Dano1@q.com 

      Thanks for your help and consideration.
