I was not trying to have this “punch” blow up into a big thing. I was just curious if the story I was told was true, because both coaches are very respected and have teams that play a clean game. Since Steele has won league almost every year for the past 10 years, they do have a target on their backs and other league teams step it up when playing them.

On a positive note, a Granite parent told me that the Granite coach has been pushing for 3 refs this season, and they had 3 refs at their next home game after this event. I know we all hate to see these things happen in youth soccer, but it's always good to see positive change when these things do occur.

Do you have a link to the videos?

Personally I'm opposed to posting videos/pictures of minors that show them in a negative light in a public forum, but I know others may not feel the same.

If people are going to post comments about videos, it seems only fair that they should post links to the videos so that others can make up their own minds.

The boys varsity Westview vs Poway game initially showed on Max Preps as a 3-0 Westview win and was changed to a Westview loss by forfeit. I am assuming some type of player ineligibility. Does anyone know what happened to cause the forfeit?

Scuttlebutt has it, Westview player attended an "ID Camp" without permission. Stupid rule IMHO, Westview dominated the game deserve the win. Embarrassing game for Poway.

That is a dumb rule. Is he suspended for the season or just a couple of games?

It was their biggest losing margin of the season - for few hours. They got it back last night losing to Calexico, and even worse, at home.

I believe it is in the rule book something like twice the number of games equal to the number of days of the ID camp. So if it was a 1 day camp I believe he would be suspended for 2 games.

The rule is a joke especially since the San Diego section is way more restrictive than the other sections in the state. Kids are only allowed 2 ID camps per high school season and cannot attend at all if not put on directly by a college. If I went to any Division 1 school right now I bet I can find more than 1 kid that has violated this rule.

The rule used to be that you could go to ID camps, but not participate in anything like a game with more than 5 players. The whole Rule 600 history has looked like a restriction in search of a justification.

Since it effects female soccer players and not male football players, it is also a Title IX violation. CIF SD knows this but does not care.
 
Down in South Bay, the girls Eastlake is by far the best team. The game last night between Olympian and Eastlake was the best game I seen so far this season.

Bonita Vista is overachieving as they are taking advantage of their home field conditions (Probably the worst in the county). Otay Ranch is underachieving and Montgomery has been the surprise of the season.

CIF Playoffs will be fun to watch.

That is the case and one of the dumbest rules that there is. Sad for a title to be won based on something like that but more that the game had to be a forfeit. Suspend the player(still stupid) but not the entire team. A paperwork technicality. The bigger thing is, who from Poway tattled? I can tell you nobody else cares, if it was another team in the league I am certain they don't even report it. The kids in the league have been talking about it a lot, it certainly shines a bad light on the school receiving the gift.

"tattled" is a 6th-grade concept.

Here's another one --

My dds recently went to an ID camp outside of Socal. We were surprised to see so many players from San Diego. They told my dds that they have been to multiple camps this winter, which is a clear violation of the ridiculous 2 ID camp rule in San Diego CIF. I know that 2 of the girls came from teams that have beat us this year, not sure of their league ranking. I am not sure whether the girls and their families knew that they even needed permission to attend ID camps since not all coaches tell their players, some miss team meetings, forget, etc. But to penalize an entire team for the actions of 1 player that might not have even been aware of the rule is beyond belief.

The rule is horrible, but having a rule and not enforcing it is worse.

It has creeped back into high school. "If they find out who tattled he is going to have a big target on him. Unless it is the coach, then they will just clear a ball in his direction." I love teenagers....
