Backed by "science".
The key factor that explains this, and that differentiates Danes from Swedes and Finns, seems to be that Danes have consistently low (and realistic) expectations for the year to come.
Why Are Danes The World's Happiest Nation?
Earlier this year, Denmark came top in a world map of happiness (the UK ranked 41st out of 178 nations). And for more than 30 years it has ranked first in European satisfaction surveys. So what makes Danes so content? Researchers in this week's Christmas issue of the British Medical Journal...

Obviously will take what we can get, but that rule absolutely has no science behind it.
No science at all.
HS sports in AZ are requiring kids to be masked masks practice during games. My oldest is now on soccer game #5 with a mask. Some complaining, but not much. The complaining centers around the annoyance of the mask not staying on. I think we fixed the issue. He's motivated to play his last year of HS, as many others are.
The petition issue now is that parents are not allowed to travel to away games. The rules that are plucked out of thin without a logical assessment is silly. Soccer games don't pack them in, plenty of room to have parents space out. But parent attendance at home games are fine? I guess the away stands are broken? The logic applied by burokrats is mind boggling.
Club soccer doesn't require masks
"Most telling from the CDC/NFL paper was the fact that, according to Dr. Allen Sills, the NFL’s chief medical officer, “We have not seen any evidence of on-field transmission in NFL games or practices.” Dr. Sills added,"

I can't believe I'm inserting myself here, but it sounds like at least right now, that is the preferred term. I seem to recall a time when it was not, (as you said.)

I understand that some athletes have done this and it doesn't bother them- buuut, it does bother quite a few!!! A teammate of my daughters gets panic attacks when she tries, it's awful. I hope they don't require them either, would make no sense.
They are now talking about how every one needs to wear 3-4 masks even when after vaccinated, so it wouldn't surprise me if they require athletes to wear at least 2. J/K....sort of.....
What do coronavirus variants mean for your masks?
Experts say masks remain incredibly important — and that means making sure you have one that fits well and offers adequate protection.

Honestly, if more magats would do this, most of our problems would be solved.

I went biking the other day up some steep climbs. I've got the covid-19lbs...so I was a bit winded. Plus it was surprisingly hot that day. Nonetheless, the neck gator absolutely had an impact on me. And as @dad4, rightfully pointed out elsewhere, if the air is blocked by the mask, it will just find its way out around the nose or somewhere else.
Don't get me wrong, I believe in masks when it comes to indoor activities or areas where you can't socially distance and are standing next to people for an extended period of time. There is science there.

The NFL/CDC just came out with a study looking at covid and NFL games. They found no instance of transmission during games.
At some point enough is enough. If you aren't catching on the field tackling people, you aren't getting it playing soccer, basketball, volleyball, etc.

There was a basketball tournament in the news last fall that alledgedly caused an outbreak. However, basketball is indoors, and people are sitting in close quarters, maybe even eating, (this place has a snack bar,) and probably carpooling, (which is definitely more risky.) I wish they wouldn't spin it as "the tournament had an outbreak..."!

Sounds like your school boards, union and associations have been taken over by leftists idiots like California. The rules for Covid driven by the left for the most part are not based in science.
It's not ideal but at least they are playing. Originally they had cancelled the season, with little to no science to back it up. After significant public pushback, they reversed course. The compromise was masks on the field and parents at home games only.
I agree with zero of it.
Not sure why we are arguing about whether kids wear masks during games. Whether we agree or not, there is nothing we can do.
In CA, the remaining issue is when we have games, and how best to organize games within the restrictions. No tournaments and same/neighboring county makes it more difficult.

So we are supposed to be going out of state 1x a month for 3 months in a row, (starting in March.)
I would much rather be restricted to local league play if it meant not such a large travel expense.
Do clubs even have that option? I thought the state rules said no tournaments, no out of state travel.
To me, now is the time to get planning for league play.
