No one has done a study large enough to evaluate whether on field covid transmission does or does not exist. Or, if it does exist, what the odds are.And it's significantly safer to play 10 minutes from your home than to travel every weekend to Arizona and Utah. With that being said, my family has traveled to Arizona on multiple occasions including Surf Cup. For Surf Cup, my kids played 8 games over 4 days during a huge spike in infections and none of the kids on the teams have gotten Covid as a result of soccer.
Your statement is, essentially, “ I dealt one card from a deck. It wasn’t the queen of spades. Therefore the deck has no queen of spades.”
I happen to believe that on field transmission is a relatively low risk, the drive and hotel are medium risk, and the restaurant dinner is a high risk. But only the restaurant part has strong data behind it.
