And what about heat timeouts?

Q: I know it’s all about college and WFDF right now, but looking to the club season: My experience last year was that every regular single tournament fell under a heat advisory of some sort. DC, Colorado, South Carolina…games had to be shortened, pushed super early, or pushed super late. I was miserable on the sidelines; I can only imagine what it was like to play five games in that. I don’t think this is going to change — it’s only going to get worse. Is it time to rethink whether club ultimate should be played outdoors in the summer months south of, like, Canada? (But also I’m not going to Canada.)

Yeah, it’s been pretty brutal the last two years.
