CA youth sports

Sad someone has to post here to find value in what they believe, but then again, if you don't have a significant other or a child, and you are locked up all day, what else are you going to do.

You forgot the " create multiple identities" part

Do you realize you are saying the same thing?

The only difference is, when he says schools cannot open until restrictions can be put into place like wearing masks, social distancing and ventilating rooms, right-identifying people claim it's an endless lockdown.

And when right-identifying people says schools can reopen with restrictions like wearing masks, social distancing and ventilating rooms, it's common sense and perfectly reasonable.

The problems are that (1) some schools are clearly having a problem implementing restrictions like wearing masks, social distancing and ventilating rooms -- in my school district, it's due to limited resources and severe overcrowding, and (2) the right-identifying people's use of the term "lockdown" is muddying what would otherwise be a unified effort to equip schools and teachers with the reasonable restrictions they need to safely reopen.

We are 12 months in to a pandemic and they still can't figure out how to implement the safeguards so that schools can reopen?! Are you kidding me? You use every available space on your campus including gyms and outdoor spaces to spread out the students. Heck, my kid has math class in the gym! If you still can't socially distant enough, use a hybrid system with two days on and two days at home with the third day a flex day. There is a TON of CARES money that has been allocated for PPE and cleaning supplies.

Rumor has it March 6 will be the opening of high school sports and youth club sports will follow right after.

I'm so tired of hearing "we need to make sure we make schools safe before reopening?". WTF have you been doing for the last year particularly since there has been overwhelming evidence for months that schools are safe?

Up in Norcal, Norcal Premier posted an update today. Looks like they are preparing for the only realistic option which is playing within the same county. Still mentions needing to meet CA guidelines which is currently being in the orange tier.
Yes San Francisco will be more limited but even then I can think of at least 5 clubs in San Francisco off the top of my head.
 
I feel the dam bursting in California and youth sports will be back after a 12 month break. I feel like the last 12 months took one month in real time. Play ball!!!!
 
I might talk a lot today everyone. Just a heads up if I cause some of you heart burn when I go on and on. I love sports so much. It's what life should be about. Fun & games, what is not fun about that life style? We all need to play and have fun and work hard at the same time. I'm willing to give life another try if we all agree not to cheat to get to the front or pay to get your spot on the team. I'm so down with losing under these new rules of life. I just want fairness and justice for all :)
 
According to the latest question today from @KRCA

"CDPH and the governor's office are working on updates to the youth sports guidance... Hope to share details in the next two weeks

had me until the hope & two more weeks :rolleyes: but at least that's before March

Here's the latest. Yesterday, Governor Newsom said that with Covid numbers trending in the right direction new youth guidance will be announced "in the coming days," which probably means towards the end of next week. The assumption is we are going to see a relaxation of the rules, and allowance for competitive games sometime in the near future. How soon? That we don't know, but many high school football teams are now planning to resume practices, with a March 19th target for the start of their season.

We don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves, as the Governor has been reluctant to bend on youth sports for quite some time, so we are weary of what to expect. This may also be something that's geared toward high school tackle football, who has a drop dead date coming up before they have to cancel the whole season. They have already done away with pre-season and playoff games. However, if tackle football is allowed to resume, the belief is all high contact outdoor sports will also be reopened.

Until we have more details we do not want to set any exact target date, but if rules are relaxed we are most likely looking at a late-March/early April start.

We are suggesting to all players looking to play in the Spring that you don't wait too much longer to register. These new guidelines will potentially come with field limits and gathering restrictions. The challenge for a league like ours is the large amount of games taking place at one time creates a tournament like atmosphere, which we know will not be allowed. Significant adjustments will need to be made, and we will need to set a cap much lower than we have in the past.

That's where we are at. It feels like there is momentum to get kids back on the field, and we remain cautiously optimistic. We will e-mail everyone when the next update comes out.

Any questions please call Ryan Leinart at 949-422-5864.
 
There’s a monkey wrench about to be thrown in all this. The new cdc guidelines on schools have been leaked. They specifically mention sports and extracurriculars. Depending on how restrictive the new tier systems are it may give California cover to keep doing what it’s doing. Don’t want to go into politics so I posted the article in off topic.

Wait, so the CDC is part of Newsom’s conspiracy to intentional sabotage the economy for his own personal gain?

Football and baseball changes but no mention of soccer just yet.

As Newsom mentioned he is working on a deal. Since sports are tied to school reopenings, I'm sure he needs the time to work out a deal with the large school unions. He now has pressure to push back against the unions because of the recall reaching the signature requirement and what's happening in other union controlled areas like Chicago, were Mayor Lightfoot has aggressively fought the unions (kudos to her for finally drawing a line). There will be a recall vote, but if he can pretend that he reopened schools and sports he may prevail in a recall election.

Don't hold your breath for anything material changing after two weeks. I hope it does, but...
