make it 51 Eagle. Look, it's going to happen September 25-27. I spoke to my source and as of today it's still on. Double or nothing bro?
New Youth Sports Guidance
- Thread starter Dargle
- Start date
Short term positives - clubs in AZ that are historical rivals but haven't been able to play against each other (top teams) due to ECNL/GDA now have a chance to revive the rivalry, should be fun. Long term - not good if CA stays locked down, hard to keep interest if you are playing the same teams over and over again over a 4-5 month span. I'm sure a Vegas trip two would help.

sure but you have to pay-up first
No one from Socal has played a game since last Feb ((allegedly)) and our socal goats need at least four weeks of full time ganas training before the big games . I see a light at the end of the tunnel everyone. Hope is hope and sometimes all you have is hope
Yea.. Call it the COVID Cup and have all the MLS, GAL, ECNL, DPL and ECRL teams play each other at each age level both Girls and Boys. Make all the medals look like a face mask over a soccer ball. They may as well. I am thinking the AZ and NV teams will simply shift schedules and get all their intraleague games out of the way while they wait for when/if SoCal comes back online.

What's worse than a racist or misogynist? A deadbeat who doesn't pay his gambling debt.
@Dom??? This is only about Youth Sports and if IT is happening. Go to off topic thread and we chat there

Problem is the clubs will not play each other - to afraid they may lose someone. Grass is greener... big egos would get hurt... Just keep taking the $$$$ and promising a season. It would be awesome - create kind of a AZ champions league but it would NEVER happen!
If Cali doesn't come back they are quickly going to run out of teams to play. At least at their skill level.. unless they want to go to Texas.. which is doubtful. At this rate RSL will play SCDS for GAL and DPL and Arsenal will play Rising for ECNL, and ECRL and maybe FC Tuscon. That is what... 4 games? They could knock out their LV games as well but that doesn't add much more. Sure they may lose some at one age level but they could gain in others. Its more about geography than players... how far will you drive for practice?
Only if HS Sports is back too and I will walk away from club soccer.Looks like SD County was doing it right thing the whole time.
I'd trade a year of no youth soccer, for kids being allowed to physically go back to school in the fall.

Arizona has a POSITIVE TEST RATE of 18.4
California has a POSITIVE TEST RATE 6.4
Is Arizona going about this right by opening up or is California just dragging its feet about opening up more?
All I know is I miss watching my kids compete!

Wasn’t SD the first place to open up and remain mostly open and defy Greusome’s decree?Looks like SD County was doing it right thing the whole time.

You have been warned. Next offense is a ban.

Mine is ready today. 3 days a week keeper training and facing shots from two male college players has definitely improved her reaction time, plus kept her in shape. Be fun to see her face some of her teammates in the next few weeks. She actually feels like she can play college soccer.No one from Socal has played a game since last Feb ((allegedly)) and our socal goats need at least four weeks of full time ganas training before the big games .

That is awesome to hear bro. My dd will be looking for some GK to take on some of her shots. She makes them all and we all know that is not reality. Get ready because soccer will be played, mark my words!!!!Mine is ready today. 3 days a week keeper training and facing shots from two male college players has definitely improved her reaction time, plus kept her in shape.

IDK honestly...
AYSA (arizona youth soccer) looked at what is going on in Utah where they ran ODP and have been running Rec soccer for awhile with no issues. It was determined that outdoor youth sports including soccer did not incur serious risk and therefore should be allowed. They are demographically and geographically (one giant city where most population lives) similar to us so it is a favorable comparison. There may be some cities in metro Phoenix that may not allow use of their fields but.. there enough that will.
That's great news.
