Different leagues, such as CONCACAF and NWSL, have specific rules for weather delays, while MLS considers safety, playability of the field, logistical factors, and commercial aspects when making postponement decisions. Players and former USWNT members expressed concerns about the unsafe playing conditions on social media.
