Here are our procedures for rescheduling a practice:
1) Fairfax County Cancellations:
Please note that if FCPS closes the gym on the evening of your practice, we do not automatically schedule your for a replacement time. You must still request a new slot per the steps below.
2) Check Time Slot Availability:
Check our coaches-only practices spreadsheet, which you can access via the link that we emailed you at the beginning of the season, for available times, dates and locations.
- We can only grant your request for a new practice slot if the new date is the week before, the week during, or the week after your regularly-scheduled practice.
- Example:
- Team X wants to cancel their normal Tuesday, January 14th, 2020 slot at Gym A.
- Team X may request any single available replacement slot for any weeknight at any of our gyms during the following weeks:
- Monday 1/6/2020 to Friday 1/10/2020 (the prior week);
- Monday 1/13/2020 to Friday 1/17/2020 (the present week); OR
- Monday 1/20/2020 to Friday 1/24/2020 (the following week).
2) Email Your Request:
Email turnpike.basketball@gmail.com with your specific request (please include the exact time, date, and location of your desired replacement practice).
3) League Response
The league will respond to you, usually within 24 hours, to let you know if your requested slot is approved.
- New slots are granted on a first-come, first-served basis, so consider requesting multiple times and dates in your email to improve your chances of getting your requested slot ASAP.
NOTES:
- Only the league office can schedule a new practice slot for you and update the practice spreadsheet.
- Remember, you must have prior league approval before using any practice slot at any of our gyms.
