NCAA rules from an article about a lightning delay at this years regional baseball tournament.
Chad Tolliver, the NCAA's assistant director of championships and alliances, issued a four-page memo dated May 26 advising Division I tournament directors of lightning detection procedures and protocols.
It instructs event staff to monitor MxVision WeatherSentry online and observe a 30-mile "alert ring" and an eight-mile "warning ring" for lightning.
Once lightning enters the warning ring, competition must be stopped and athletes and spectators moved to safe areas. No further activity is permitted until 30 minutes have passed since the last lightning strike inside the warning ring.
