Weather Disrupts Sports This Summer | Winnipeg News

Description

This summer’s extreme weather is turning sports into a high-stakes gamble—wildfires derailed the Tour de France, heatwaves grounded soccer games, and golf courses canceled rounds not just from sweltering temps but torrential rain. Athletes battle blistering heat and sudden winds, organizers scramble with late-night schedules and mandatory water breaks, and staff face lost wages while kids lose vital exercise. Even indoor leagues like box lacrosse had to reschedule 12 games due to storms and unsafe travel. It’s no longer about convenience—it’s survival. Climate change isn’t just reshaping our weather; it’s rewriting the rules of play—and we’re all on the field now.
