What's your best guess as to when trainings will resume?

Cal south has a call with Clubs on Tuesday to give an update as to what is allowed. They hold the clubs insurance so clubs won’t do anything until they approve.

Yes I have heard that Tuesday’s call will five clubs an idea of what they can start doing, I’d expect most big clubs start end of this upcoming week and other clubs to start beginning of the week after. Either way, great to see that CalSouth is getting behind this and the kids will get something to look forward to during the week again.

Whats allowed?

Don't the counties have to change or apply for variance to stay at home to allow anything including camps before Cal south return to play even begins? Nothing is automatic or granted due to state issuing guidance in most sectors now, youth sports has yet to have those.

Return to play doc:
1. State and local "stay and shelter" regulations are lifted for youth sports with conditions

Haven't seen or heard #1 from the state, county, or any locals just yet. Maybe this week will bring greater clarity.

When that is done of course need facilities to be open and permit those sports activities. The camp angle might work for some but of course "camps" normally have a different insurance so I won't be surprised to see that as a requirement for rentals by places that use that standard.

I'm just hoping there is a quicker way to cut through all the hoops but have a feeling that the DisneyLand reopening dates( mid July) are about where we will be before youth soccer is really back for everyone in all of SoCal.

I apologize if this is a stupid question, but is the new MLS league a part of Cal South?

I think that date is when a lot of clubs and Calsouth want full trainings to happen. The weeks leading up will be a progression to that date and real practices. If they started any kind of training on that date, no tournaments at all in August, kids won’t be ready. Fall season will be first games.

No not part of Cal South

USYS is providing sanctioning they have already releases their return to play guidelines.

Usclub is ECNL, NPL, etc and they to have already released return to play.

They are hinge on compliance with state, county, local requirements. There are no blanket permission to return to play. Insurance is not provided unless compliant.

Yeah thats understand and reasonable. But how practical or realistic that is is another question for the masses. For some with there own private facilities that's going to be a lot easier than the public ones. For example when will great park open back for youth soccer? When that happens for example the dominos start to fall in place for those that use that facilities. Same goes for the schools and colleges that rent field space.
 
Looking for some opinions from those who aren't on the extreme ends of society being open or closed. Would you think it's safe for my son to start private goalie training? He has asthma, so I'm a little more cautious than most. It does seem like asthma may not be as big of a risk as thought, so I'm warming up to the idea of him getting back out there

yes. Im sure if the coach would wear a mask if you told him the condition. or try to see how far your son can handle a mask while training.

I would like to tell you that I am not on the extreme end, but that would not be honest (I am 1,000% behind opening it up for those who are willing to get back out there), that said, if YOU have ANY concerns you should not have your kid out there. While the risk for kids seems very low (zero deaths under the age of 19 in San Diego County https://www.sandiegocounty.gov/cont...demiology/COVID-19 Deaths by Demographics.pdf), that would be of no comfort if your son was the outlier. YOU have to decide what you are comfortable with, no one else. I am asthmatic as well, so I have some concerns, but I thought I read some where that asthma was not a factor. Listen to no one (even me), and do what you feel comfortable with.
PS My kid is a keeper and she will be back at it this week.

Honestly I would not seek medical advise from from this forum. If your doctor does not know, seek advise from another doctor or two.

Safe is a relative term. New Zealand and Taiwan are the safest, as they actually reported zero daily new cases. Germany is not as safe as New Zealand, but they're looking good and Bundesliga is back on. US is not as safe as Germany, but probably safer than Brazil. Working with one coach and the same 10 kids every week is safer than working with two coaches and 20 kids.

My kids will participate when soccer is allowed because I figure this is about as safe as we will get in this country. As a country, we didn't do the shelter-in-place all that well, and we also couldn't handle/allow the hard core contact tracing like they do in Korea. If we go into lock down again, I've personally come to the conclusion that we simply will not achieve the kind of results that has been achieved in other countries.

Work, school and soccer fall under essential activities in my household, so my kids will play. But we limit our exposure everywhere else. My kids don't go to Costco with my wife for free samples anymore :) (not sure if they still have them).

Good luck to you.

Thanks! I was planning on calling my son's doctor this week to get his opinion

ASK YOUR DOCTOR... They will tell you the truth... Do not rely on anything else... your kid will thank you for it later.
 
The week of April 13th we averaged 2200 deaths per day. Last week it dropped for the 7th straight week to 900 per day, with yesterday being the lowest day since March at 373. For comparison the US averages about 8000 total deaths from all causes per day.

Funny, but sad thing happened Saturday. 5 girls out together kicking the ball around, running some drills. Kept about 10 ft. away, including keeping their backpacks and water away from each other. Girl walks up to her bag and drinks her water. Only it wasn't her water, it was a teammates.

Also saw a High School soccer team with about 20 girls full on scrimmage that same day, bumping, slide talks, the whole works. As we start back up playing, lets try to follow the rules as much as possible. Be safe, but enjoy the outdoors.

If that is not ok now why would it be safe in two weeks? A month? 3 months? 6 months? Is the virus going to be gone in 6 months? I highly doubt it.
