The decisions of record

Vrrdict for youth sports

Decide once.

Before the heat does.

Your rules take it from here — the league sees the call, the parents see the reasoning.

Sound familiar?

It’s 6:30 a.m. on tournament day. Three games on three fields, fifteen parents in the group chat, and a heat advisory creeping toward kickoff. Somebody has to make the call for fifteen kids — and whatever you decide, half the sideline will second-guess it.

Your Heat policy rule — Heat index tops 99° by 11am — your rule shortens halves and adds water breaks. Lightning stays clear.

How it works

  1. 01

    Write the rule once, when it’s calm

    “Shorten halves and add water breaks over a 99° heat index. Pause for lightning within 10 miles.” Plain English — or start from your league’s template.

  2. 02

    We watch the signals

    Heat index, lightning distance, air quality, and rain — for your exact field and start time, days ahead.

  3. 03

    Get your verdict

    Play, shorten, move indoors, or postpone — framed as your rule talking, reasoning attached. Decided the night before, not at 6:30 a.m.

  4. 04

    Share it + keep the receipts

    A live link every parent can watch — no signup — and a timestamped record if anyone asks why.

Let the rule be the bad guy.

When the call is “the heat rule we all agreed on,” nobody’s mad at the coach. You’re not deciding under pressure on the sideline — you’re sharing a decision the rule already made.

Every verdict is backed by National Weather Service and AirNow data and a timestamped record — not a hunch.

FAQ

How does it handle heat and lightning together?

You set the lines — say, shorten over a 99° heat index and pause for lightning within 10 miles — and Vrrdict reads both against your rule, telling you which side of each line you’re on for your field and start time.

Can the whole sideline see the call?

Yes — every verdict is a live link any parent can open and watch, with the data and the rule behind it. No app, no signup.

Can our league publish one set of rules?

Start from a template and make it yours today; shared league-wide rule libraries and multi-field dashboards are what we’re building with founding leagues now.

How far ahead do we know?

A rolling verdict days ahead that firms up as game day nears — so you can tell families the night before instead of at dawn.
