Not sure if this is the place to ask this, but are any of your players ready to quit? Mine used to love practice-never wanted to miss. But with all the new rules, the drama surrounding what clubs can do what, who's tattling on who, etc, she is asking to sit this season out. I'm super bummed for her, she's been playing soccer since she was 5! (She's an 07.)
I feel lame being sad about it but damn, it all just sucks!

My kid is just doing other fun stuff. She will miss soccer and will always wonder all the what ifs. She really loves soccer and will be ready to play some day hopefully. I was all depressed and i know why. I loved sports so much as a kid and it literally kept me in school and I just feel sad for the kids. I also feel sad for all the businesses closing down in Cali.

Yeah I just got word my eldest's karate studio is shutting down. Since they had opened gyms for adults, they were really hopeful they'd get clearance to open too and just do limited service with smaller distanced groups. But it's pretty clear that isn't going to happen now. Don't get why an adult gym is o.k. but the kid's karate studio isn't. Seems like the governor just has it in for the kids. They've been in business 20 years and kept on with zoom classes but it looks like this is it.

On the other hand the pub and sushi restaurant down our street converted to all outdoor seating. It's nice and gives the niehgobrhood a sense of community. Hope they hang on but the kids aren't hanging out at the pub.

What’s incredible is Newsome and his winery business is left open. throwing salt in the massive wounds...

They don't have to quit. They can work on those 10,000 hours of skill drills that world-class players need. Try an hour or so of boring old juggling, and it's not necessary to go for a high count of consecutive juggles, just work on getting the small parts of the motions right. Most houses have a corner or wall where a player can practice bounce passes to himself, working on getting skillful touches with every portion of the foot and lower leg. If that is too boring, break out the FIFA 2020 game and work on offensive and defensive strategy. Another really boring option would be to analyze recorded games and chart out the passes that led to every goal, or the good defensive plays that prevented a goal.

In your inquiries into the COVID issues, have you come across any actual data or studies indicating that outdoor youth sports are actually resulting in any increased risk of transmission, whether by or among kids or parents? We know that this shutdown has not been good for kids. My kids' teams tonight were so down about things being suspended again. Their parents were down. I am not an unreasonable person. If there is science that shows that these activities are resulting in people getting sick in some disproportionate way, then I can accept that and explain it to my kids. Absent some empirical support showing that outdoor youth sports are actually a problem, then this feels like more incoherent, reactionary nonsense policy to me. So, please, share the data on transmissions through youth sports. Or through kids generally. I am sorry if I missed it in an earlier post. If there is none, then why are we allowing this to be done to our kids? Kids need activity and socialization. Humans need it. We all know that.

When experts are telling us that a vaccine may or may not be available for 12-18 months or ever, life in America is supposed to look like this for how long? And don't say November 4 because I am trying not to be that cynical. So, how long? As a result of a virus that kills less than 1% of the population?

I have done my own analysis of risk on sports outside which is why I have always believed there was no good reason for soccer to not start as I have stated multiple times. Tonight after finding out the announcement about no youth sports I looked at the CDC guidance. All of the protocols put in place for soccer teams made it a "Low Risk" activity. Soccer teams even put more protocols in place than what the CDC called for to make it low risk. This action has nothing to do with science. What it has to do with is some ding dong reporter that decided to do an investigation for no good reason which made the State realize they did not issue guidance. Each county health approved it so the fact the State health is pulling it so they can issue guidance because they were late to the game is unconscionable given how many kids are impacted by this ludicrous reason.

Target dates been November 3rd from the start.

Since protests are still allowed why can't clubs start the Let Kids Play Movement? You can protest on public land which opens up the parks. Teams can still continue phase 1 of calsouths requirements of social distancing and the kids can all bring 1 sign to practice. Your basicly kicking the ball around to demonstrate cause. It seems just as logical like opening as a camp. plus the media's already told us the virus magically has no tracers to these gatherings.
 
Today will be interesting as just about every new day is full of surprises. I will say this. I have many moderate friends who tend to vote for Dems and that is why OC kind of turn blue. These middle of the road left leaning folks with lots of money are now very pissed. Just watch folks. Money talks!!! Oh, another sad business story. I keep in touch with old clients I used to help. One guy owned a successful AC biz in the IE. It's him and three of his techs. This is the time of year to make money, when it's hot!!! PPP he got in April is all dried up. One of his techs got the corona and the other techs are now super afraid and one just quit and got a raise and the other two told boss man they will let him know this morning if they want to risk their lives helping people have cool air. His schedule is booked for the week and I bet he has to call everyone with the bad news. He's done imo, I can hear it in his voice. Worked his ass off to save and start his own AC biz a few years ago. I believe he will shut her down and move. It was already next to impossible to run a biz in Cali but now it's impossible, for reals!!! So handyman guy or plumber dude has to go into someone's house where the disease lives and risk their lives and the owner carries all the liability? Ya, no thanks!!! This is a complete disaster and folks will be held accountable!!!
BTW, this is not on t. t has other issues and mistakes but Cali's decisions are all on the leadership of this state and county. Leaders lead and followers follow.

Some reporter up in Sacramento did some digging over the 4th, put the state health authorities on the spot when they had been turning a blind eye with a wink and a nod on sports practices, it got caught up in the politics of what was going on and it caused them to issue “clarifying instructions” shutting down everything. I noted it back last weekend and someone here was able to find the article and posted it. In other circumstances they would have clarified things but then the rona roared and the schools debate flared up....

I gotta say I’m noticing this in the vc too. Lots of left leaning people who hate the t and look down on his supporters but who are livid at newsom and the blues particularly for doing all this while letting the protests go wild. Lots of people who I never thought would own a gun getting them too. Even some who lectured me when I took my own kids up to the alisal and they learned how to just do air rifles.

But the same thing is going on in red states too. Lots of rs upset at t and their leaders too. The panic v deniers gulf is wide and doesn’t necessarily align with party (though it does a surprising amount).

Yah Gavi doesn’t really look like the athlete type so it’s probably pretty easy for him to flex his political muscles to keep kids from any sense of normalcy in their life. But he will pander to the BLM movement and allow anyone supporting it to hold mass demonstrations. They are all of voting age or will be come election time.

Because a parent/coach from an opposing club called in to report that another club was practicing indoors and took a picture of players congregated outside the front entrance. That club in fact was not actually violating any rules and was operating within the guidance they’d received from the county, but the local news did a story that including running the picture and interviewing the person that called the media.
