Not in Santa Clara County they aren’t. Our regional NJB is only offering zoom and outdoor distanced camps. They sent out the same apologetic “we wish we knew” letter as everyone else.
Other counties are probably different, of course.
Does Newsom’s kid play soccer?

So whiny. And wrong, at least in most areas.
Have a safe holiday season, even if it’s against your will and you’d prefer to get that death rate well over 3,000 a day!
I know you’d prefer to get that daily Covid death number up to 6,000 a day at least, but too bad so sad that CA and Santa Clara County won’t let you.

I don't have a problem with the stay at home orders to reduce hospitalization, but if your touting "stay-at-home" then why leave shopping and retail open and then letting sports team still practice?? How do you go to practices and still shop if you are supposed to stay home??? seems like is a half hearted attempt at reducing cases. Either go on full lock down like Europe or 3 weeks or shut up. Businesses are in limbo with all this "yes to you, but not to the business next door". This is driving people nuts, or "this county is allowed, but that county is not", too granular, its either same rules apply for all of California or nothing.
So is the PAC 12 going to stop playing? Last I saw USC was within the boundaries and can't really call that essential travel any more than going to AZ for a soccer tournament. Those are "amateur" athletes.
Because people need to eat but living vicariously through your child can wait. Because retailers can implement reasonable and appropriate ways to mitigate risk that can be punished severely and stopped when they fail to do their part. Based on the bs people spout here, it is obvious that appropriate safety measures cannot be implemented and followed with the psycho and mostly knuckle dragging youth soccer crowd. When you allow these idiots to congregate and make decisions that impact the safety and lives of others, rather than those who will face consequences for putting lives in danger, people get killed.
Because the idea that no one gets it playing soccer at surf cup is speculative but, more importantly, significantly understates the full scope of transmissible interactions when 60,000 people travel across multiple states for kiddie games. The plane trips, the crowded hotels, the vans with 10 or more people in them, the stupid parents hitting the bars and congregating in the parking lots so they can whine about how it’s all fake and unfair that they can’t live vicariously through their child on the sidelines since no one can stop them from being the same exact idiots 100 yards away in the parking lot.
I’ll shut up just as soon as you whiny soccer parents stop snowflaking and Karening. So never in other words.
Since when is your U12 (or whatever’s) daughter’s soccer game as important to society as even a college football game? Are you saying no one should be able to do anything unless your child can do the most important thing in the world - which is to soothe your fragile ego by maybe scoring a goal or doing a step over that finally works?
Your bigotry is boundless. Happy Holidays.
No.. what I am saying is apply the restriction universally. If it is good science and good policy it should apply to all equally... not just the campaign contributors. Think of the risk... OMG people flying out of state for sport... The horror... the horror.
Apply the Newsom rule... when in doubt.. lock them out.
Colleges have a lot of resources, and take a lot of effort, to reduce risk that are not available to little kiddie clubs. Let me know when your kid’s club tests all the players weekly and sometimes daily, prohibits interactions in public outside of practice, imposes absolute control over their interactions when traveling, engages in full contact tracing in the event of exposures, provides full physicals before beginning training (and full cardios after testing positive) to ensure their health going forward, kicks them off the team when they let their stupid daddy drive them and 8 others across state lines in a van, who then spends the weekend at bars and hanging in the parking lot and pool with his other stupid parent friends, and then drives them back with none of them ever getting tested, and has league rep to ensure that every single person who interacts and travels with the players isn’t breaking the rules.
You are incredibly stupid if you think your kiddie soccer team and its posse of moron parents doing their thing in AZ constitutes the same risk as a college sports team. Ih, and I also haven’t seen 500 college teams try to congregate in one place at tur same time either. Haven’t seen 24 U10 teams play a tournament in an NBA style bubble. Haven’t seen them have access to the unlimited instant testing that wad recently approved for use.
This is all a long way of saying that your kid’s U10 team is being treated exactly the same as USC’s football team. As soon as it and every single team it wants to play implement the exact same protocols and throw the exact same amount of effort and money into safety ad the Pac-13 does, they too can go somewhere to play one team once a week with minimal risk.
So just football will be allowed in the PAC 12 then. No other sports. How misogynistic and how are you not protesting this? Funny how Covid risk is greatly reduced for activities involving TV broadcast revenue and protesting the right causes. Can't wait to see how scientists show how that works.
You know the protocols are sooo stringent in College football... They have to mask up and everything no risk there
