Again you miss the point. I do t disagree, I applaud those getting creative. If I have a DD in the age range, we would have likely been there. I am just curious as to why/how this slipped past the scrutiny of certain members of this forum.
Guidance are not for everyone

Yes Kicker, whenever we talk, I always miss your point. Plus, your life is better than mind......lol! Basically, the Kicker point of view is the correct one and like a dumb ass, I miss the point? OK, thank you.
In my house, we follow the rules so my dd would not have been there. No way. It's the way we roll bro. Some parents broke some rules in the past GDA and that was ok so like everyone has said, "rules are made to be broken."
This has not slipped any ones mind either. Who wants to call the cops or go under cover soccer watching 11 year old girls and then take photos and videos and then send those photos to friends? 16 and 17 year olds I guess is ok? Crazy times were living in.

Some do have permits, they get them the year prior.I know a couple of places that do and no club coaches or admins are even present at these places from what I have seen or they are incognito.does it seem it right or fair? No! but If you think 99% of the clubs are adhering to the State guidance you are mistaken. I hope you are not that naive. I know of some teams who never stopped practicing, scrimmaging etc.

I must be naive, because I do know for a fact that 99% of the clubs/teams adhering to guidelines and those 1% who don't, making it difficult for 99% to get back on the field.

How are they making it difficult? Field availability is based on schools (for most clubs), our restrictions with everything are based on numbers of cases and deaths which keep counties to be stuck on the states monitoring list. Unless you have some facts that these youth soccer practices and scrimmages held in socal are directly contributing to the cases and deaths i dont see how the 1% playing scrimmages are keeping us from getting on the field.
Can’t wait until a few of these kids are playing in a World Cup in a few years. I can see the backstory on ESPN:
“When Becky was 10 during the great toilet paper shortage flu of 2020...soccer was shut down in California. But Becky loved soccer so much and she couldn’t be stopped. Her parents knew that they couldn’t stop her...so they loaded up the Range Rover and drove from Irvine to Del Mar looking for soccer. Any soccer. A lone kid kicking a ball and Becky wanted to take it from him. A private coach and her parents would throw hundred dollar bills at him just to make sure Becky could juggle 500 times. One day they even found a game being played with uniforms and referees. Becky couldn’t be stopped that day. Her mom Karen recorded that game and we have this super secret footage of 10 year old Becky blasting that ball as far as she could while out sprinting everyone on the field that day. You can hear her parents - Karen and KEn— complain to the referee every time Becky made a mistake.”
Cut to a present day interview of Becky who just scored the teams 18th goal in a blowout of Antarctica in the 2028 World Cup.
“I’d like to thank my parents for breaking all of the rules during that quarantine on 2020. If I hadn’t played illegal games for those 5 months, I’d probably be smoking meth in the back of an alley right now. They are divorced now, but I sure do love them. My dad loved soccer so much that he quit his job as a CPA and now he runs soccer camps for 9 year old all stars out of the swap meet parking lot during the summer. My mom wound up marrying my soccer coach of my 15 year old team. She’d do “anything” to make sure I got lots of playing time. Go USA!!!!!”

Wow, that is one hell of a story!!!!

Too many Karens in CA.
Just wanting to hide in their basement until and if something comes along.
I have to wonder how your kid will do in college playing under NCAA rules when they have been allowed to do what they want when they want for the sake of soccer. NCAA won't have it.
The type that walk their dogs around the park and yell “I hope you all die of Covid” at the kids playing sports.
None of your business.

It didn't slip. There was a post on main forum and discussion got going but then post was deleted.
Bro, that was a low blow for all of Socal. I will think of a "too many" name for AZ folks. I have some ideas but I will wait. I can;t wait until we (our dd teams)) play one another brah. It's on dude. Loser dad buys first round?
It’s called selective moral outrage. @LuisAndres is the only person I know that speaks his mind, and doesn’t hide behind an assumed identity to be tough on a forum. The difference between getting all Karened out on me vs Luis is that you know where to find him. He’s not hiding anything. So if you have a problem with him, you can go tell him to his face. On the contrary, since I decide to hide my identity, all of you can act tough and bash me on a soccer forum.
Why are you hiding behind an assumed identity?

Sorry toughie, you are not gonna do squat. It's not against the law to film in public. So if you are in a public place, regardless of age, you have no expectation of privacy.

Let the kids practice!
I guess they where caught the coaches who where part of that “all star camp” even before this they deleted their post since they where getting heat for having the coaches faces blurred out
