Why it matters
Schedule changes spread slower than rumors
A text post saying a game moved gets lost, and parents hear different versions in different group chats. People show up to empty fields. A clearly branded update with the new details looks official and gets shared.
Ideas for Postponement and Weather Delay Graphics
Bold status word
Lead with POSTPONED, DELAYED or CANCELED in large type. That one word is what people need first.
Original and new date
Show the original date with a clear label, plus the new date and time if it is known.
Which teams are affected
Name every level affected. Weather often moves a whole night of games.
A short reason
A few words like lightning in the area or field conditions is enough.
When to check back
If a decision is still pending, say when the next update will come.
Makeup game reminder
When the makeup game arrives, post a game day graphic that says it’s the rescheduled date.
