CPSL game called off for 'unpainted field'
by Rocket Robin
The Wednesday July 19th CPSL League game between York Shooters and
Oshawa Flames at Richmond Green in Richmond Hill was cancelled tonight as the
referee ruled the field was unfit to play.
There'd been a lot of rain in
the last few days and the lines were almost completely rained out. Nice try that
officials for the Shooters tried to spray paint the lines but 'too little too
late'. It felt like the wrong kind of paint too because it stayed wet when I
felt it 20 minutes later.
I don't know who's to blame for the ground
crew not making the field playable.
The cancellation disappointed the
players and the maybe 40 fans who showed up.
The league has cancelled
eight games this year and there might be trouble squeezing in all these games
without extending the season into November!
If any one has any more
details, please add to this thread.
