And away we go...Liverpool posts June 6 and 7 tryout dates.

[jpeter]

Joking & politics aside which is hard to do..

This June date could have come from MLS as the potential one for when clubs could start training again a while back. No update but individual training did start up again late this week.

Tryout notice(s) posted w/ other clubs recently but they haven't included specific dates yet only a capture form & maybe list of slated coaches.

For others they seem to be more cautious with saying our next update will be in x days.

Of the 3 methods posting dates when things are not open yet, is that crossing the line somewhat or just hopefully business decisions?

Have other club directors talked about plans to start up practices? Will teams, leagues require testing, certification attestation ?

The world runs on money. If your against people trying to earn it go ahead and send me yours.

Hmmmm. A growing number of kids (in the 50s in ny which is still a very small number but 3 dead; about the same in the UK) have been developing Kawasaki syndrome which they suspect is related to Covid. Most were otherwise healthy. If that trend continues it could be game over for kid sports and school resumption. Hopefully it’s just a rare autoimmune blip.

Number is now 74.

Which basically means Nobody knows and it’s a tremendous small percentage; it’s more sky is falling mentality or fear mongering.

Go for it if that is what you want for your family.

Korea and Germany started their various measures to combat Covid-19 weeks ahead of us. I hope by the time we do open up for soccer, our curve would look more like theirs. If not, we all have a decision to make.

Also...When you take New York out of the US chart above, you have a different picture. The following shows OC. We have doubled hospitalizations per day since a month ago while in shut down. We started to flatten the curve but then the weather got nice and the "You do you" crowd decided their risk was low.. We had the highest increase in hospitalizations today. We went from 183 yesterday to 218 today. Interesting that is a week after the beach issue was revealed. Any way, I don't think much will be happening the near future.

Georgia has reported their lowest amount of cases and deaths. Georgia got shamed opening up so early; also NY reported 67% of new cases came from stay at home people. Florida got shamed for opening up their beaches early; apparently the virus didn’t know people would do that so Florida does have a low rate.

You know it is interesting....I have seen the argument that people are getting it staying at home so we might as well open up. I scratch my head at that one because all that statistic shows is how incredibly contagious this virus is as those people had to have picked up the virus from groceries presuming no one visited them.

Not sure where you got your Florida statistic but their rate is not low. They had 2500 new cases since opening Monday. https://abcnews.go.com/US/coronavirus-live-updates-global-covid-19-death-toll/story?id=70592970

Florida still has a lockdown in place for 3 counties which account for 60% of their total cases and just under 60% of their total deaths,

They are following the recommendation of president"s corona task force and managing the virus county by county . If any hot spots arise

they will respond accordingly.

 

[chiefs]

Nursing homes are a focal point. At least 1,225 residents have died, 45% of the calif state total

what’s interesting is the stats of recovery, and should be discussed at great length instead of instilling fear over and over. Fear will paralyze societies.

Hmmmm

3000 cases of Kawasaki disease every year(just google it if you want the link). Now they think an outbreak is associated with Covid. Just like the drunk driver that killed 3 people. He was diagnosed with Covid too. This has gone too far. Keeping kids inside and not around other kids limits their immune system. Get the kids back out to build their immunity. Everything will be Covid related now bc their immune systems have not been able to develop properly

Not sure what there latest update is but another club posted something I remembered couple days ago:

All tryouts 1-1 no groups
Pre-register only no walkups. Wavier and onsite temperature taken prior to entrance
Masks must be worn @ ALL times by ALL players no exceptions!
Social 6' distances must be maintained at all times even during the drills
no parents allowed on the field or stands, please enjoy music in your automobile.

sounds like a fun time, tryouts or enlistmint take your pick $$$ and some ball or foot skills.

Could clubs enforce those parental restrictions every year?

At trainings, indoor pickup, and the gym, no mask ares being used. Temp checks and hand sanitizers are about it - my son has been out there since last week, the genie is out of the bottle ...

I live in a costal city, thousands of school-age kids at the beach no masks no change for last week that I can see even most adults so the state wide order gets ignored for the most part and life goes on.

My kid trains everyday just about and will use a mask coming & going in crowds but not while training since he's not within 6' anyway.

 

[timbuck]

My kid has been to the beach with a lot of her teammates. I'm sure they have been closer than 6 feet. But at practice, they stay away from each other.

 

[ChrisD]

my son gets dropped off at the beach with about 3-4 of his teammates (12yr olds) in Newport about 4 times a week, about 120 kids in total there, like a day care but water and sand and when he does his soccer training they take his temp and everyone is good.
