Here is the message I sent out via email to all who have pre-registered. 

 

Parents, Coaches, Club Leaders and Players,

 

I received an email from UW-Milwaukee this morning informing us that they cannot host us Saturday and that they are cancelling all events at UW-Milwaukee. 

 

I was fearful of this happening but certainly not surprised.  I also respect them for their decision and agree that an abundance of caution is the way to go. 

 

Of course, I am deeply saddened by this and know many, many players look forward to this event all year.   

 

Just read on breaking news that W.H.O has declared a pandemic.   I think our lives will be changed for a while and pray that none of us will personally be affected by this worldwide event. 

 

We of course will be offering to refund registration fees.  I do however ask you to consider your registration fee to WSCF as a donation.   This event was the largest net event for us for the year and provided a substantial part of our budget.  

 

Your support is much appreciated.  Please let me know if you want the refund and I will gladly access PayPal and refund the fees.

 

Again, with deepest sadness, I am sorry that we cannot have this event.   About 100 trophy shelves will have one less trophy. (:
