HEAT ADVISORY

HeatWatch

BRONZE
Be advised - there is a heat advisory in effect this weekend. Be especially aware for venues that are inland, as temperatures may reach above 105 degrees with a heat index of 115. On turf soccer fields, the heat index could reach 130 or more and is unsafe for moderate to rigorous physical activity.

Hundreds die each year from heat stroke, including young athletes. Protect your kids.

If your child is unlucky enough to play soccer games this weekend, what was the temperature and were shade structures available? Cool water on the sidelines? Mandatory rest breaks?
