Game Reschedule Policy

Home Game Reschedule Requests

The United Futbol Academy has a large number teams participating in a wide variety of local and state-level programs. As such, UFA has established a set of game rescheduling procedures which is designed to accommodate the needs of all programs in which our members participate and also meet state regulations.

PLEASE NOTE: The official UFA Game Reschedule Request form or game cancellation MUST BE RECEIVED BY 12 PM THURSDAY (NO LESS THAN 8 BUSINESS DAYS) prior to the originally scheduled date. Game Reschedule or Cancellation Requests made after that time are subject to a fine equal to the cost of referees plus booking fee.

Teams that do not show for scheduled games (i.e., failure to notify the opposing team within eight days of the scheduled match) will be charged with a forfeit at the discretion of the playing division committee. Should the game be rescheduled, at the discretion of the playing division committee, the cost of the referees for the reschedule shall be borne by the team that was responsible for the match not being played. The referee fees must be paid to the home association prior to the game being rescheduled.

Requests for changing a home game will only be handled by email.  Phone messages will not be answered.  Please complete the two steps below to reschedule a home game.

Step 1:  

Contact your opponent (away team) to identify alternate game day possibilities.  Email your request to wendy@unitedfa.org.  The following information must be provided about the original game:

Step 2: 

Once you receive your email response with all available options, please contact the opposing team and reach a mutual decision on the date and time for the rescheduled game.  At that time, please send wendy@unitedfa.org the email/text chain from BOTH teams/coaches agreeing to the change.

When submitting Reschedule Requests, please write Reschedule Request, GotSport Game # & Date and Team Names in the subject line of your email. 

Once the confirmed UFA Game Reschedule Request is received, the schedules will be updated and referees will be arranged.  A confirmation email will then be sent to the person requesting the change (Team Manager or Coach) with all of the rescheduled game information.
