Akron District Golf Association tournaments are run as competitive tournaments. So unless there are hours of heavy rains before and at our starting time, the event will be played. A forecasted chance of rain or a light rain at our starting times is not a reason to cancel in advance. If the forecast is for lightning or a near-certain amount of rain that will clearly cause standing water, then an early cancellation is a possibility. But if the course is playable and the weather manageable, the event will be played.
