How to reschedule a canceled game

Keep the cancelled contest for history, then create a linked new game with a fresh date and time.

New Horizon Experience. This article describes the New Horizon Experience, which is available now. As of September 28, 2026, New Horizon is the default starting point on a computer or laptop. In the Horizon WebRef mobile apps for Android and iOS, New Horizon is already what you see. If you still have the older layout, choose Switch to New Horizon from the banner or your account menu. You can switch back to Legacy Horizon from that menu any time during the transition.

​

Assignors and organization administrators reschedule from the Master Game Schedule. The dedicated Reschedule action keeps the original game cancelled, copies its teams, location, type, and other game data into a new contest, and links the two so you can see what was postponed and what replaced it. Officials who were assigned on the cancelled game are not copied. You assign people to the new game the same way you would for any other contest.

​


​

Cancel the game first

​

Reschedule only appears on a game that is already cancelled and has not been rescheduled yet. Cancel from Master with Cancel on one game, or cancel several at once from the selection bar. For those steps, see How to cancel games and How to cancel games in bulk.

​


​

Show cancelled games that still need a new date

​

Master opens with Status set to Not cancelled, so cancelled games drop out of the everyday list. Open Filters (the funnel on a phone, or the Filters button on a computer). Set Status to Cancelled, awaiting reschedule when you want only cancelled games that do not have a linked replacement yet. Cancelled only also works if you prefer every cancelled contest in the date window. Choose Apply Filters.

After you apply that filter, each cancelled row or card keeps a red Cancelled badge. Snapshot chips at the top can show a count such as 2 cancelled. For more on why cancelled games seem to disappear, see Are canceled games deleted from the system?.

​

Choose Reschedule

​

On the cancelled game, open More actions (the three-dot control on the card or in the Actions column). Choose Reschedule.

That opens the Reschedule form with the original game data filled in. The cancelled game stays cancelled. You are creating the replacement, not editing the cancelled row back to active.

​

Set the new date and time, then save

​

Check the new Date, start and end times, teams, ice rink or location, league, and game code. Change anything that should differ for the makeup contest. When the details look right, save with Reschedule Game (your organization may use a different game label in that button). Horizon adds the new game to the schedule and links it to the cancelled original so you can tell which cancellations still need a date.

After you save, assign officials to the new game as you normally would. If someone was already paid or needs a fee adjustment because of the change, handle that separately from this Reschedule path.

If you still see the older layout

​

On a computer or laptop, New Horizon is the default starting point as of September 28, 2026. The older legacy layout appears only if you switched back to Legacy Horizon. Choose Switch to New Horizon from the banner or your account menu to return. On that older layout, use the schedule filter bar to show cancelled games, then use the Reschedule Game icon next to the cancelled contest. Officials from the cancelled game are still not copied to the new one.
