Guidance are not for everyone

I must be naive, because I do know for a fact that 99% of the clubs/teams adhering to guidelines and those 1% who don't, making it difficult for 99% to get back on the field.
How are they making it difficult? Field availability is based on schools (for most clubs), our restrictions with everything are based on numbers of cases and deaths which keep counties to be stuck on the states monitoring list. Unless you have some facts that these youth soccer practices and scrimmages held in socal are directly contributing to the cases and deaths i dont see how the 1% playing scrimmages are keeping us from getting on the field.
 
Can’t wait until a few of these kids are playing in a World Cup in a few years. I can see the backstory on ESPN:
“When Becky was 10 during the great toilet paper shortage flu of 2020...soccer was shut down in California. But Becky loved soccer so much and she couldn’t be stopped. Her parents knew that they couldn’t stop her...so they loaded up the Range Rover and drove from Irvine to Del Mar looking for soccer. Any soccer. A lone kid kicking a ball and Becky wanted to take it from him. A private coach and her parents would throw hundred dollar bills at him just to make sure Becky could juggle 500 times. One day they even found a game being played with uniforms and referees. Becky couldn’t be stopped that day. Her mom Karen recorded that game and we have this super secret footage of 10 year old Becky blasting that ball as far as she could while out sprinting everyone on the field that day. You can hear her parents - Karen and KEn— complain to the referee every time Becky made a mistake.”
Cut to a present day interview of Becky who just scored the teams 18th goal in a blowout of Antarctica in the 2028 World Cup.
“I’d like to thank my parents for breaking all of the rules during that quarantine on 2020. If I hadn’t played illegal games for those 5 months, I’d probably be smoking meth in the back of an alley right now. They are divorced now, but I sure do love them. My dad loved soccer so much that he quit his job as a CPA and now he runs soccer camps for 9 year old all stars out of the swap meet parking lot during the summer. My mom wound up marrying my soccer coach of my 15 year old team. She’d do “anything” to make sure I got lots of playing time. Go USA!!!!!”
 
This is ass-backwards. If the governor is going to impose new laws like this, whether you agree with them or not, then it’s up to him to enforce them. But of course most counties and cities disagree with the governor’s hyper-restrictive policies, so they opt to “educate” vs enforce. This isn’t CalSouth’s job. It’s Newsom’s.

I don’t understand how this is an unfair advantage. Why would you care what MY kid has been doing. Worry about your own child’s development, or lack thereof. The only unfair thing I see is parents keeping their children indoors for fear they might catch a virus.
Tunnel vision. There are plenty of things to do outdoors.

Wow, that is one hell of a story!!!!

I post what I want, when I want. Who gives a shit what you think. Thanks for admitting it bugs you, that means your jealous. I’ll be thinking about you on my next scrimmage.
I have to wonder how your kid will do in college playing under NCAA rules when they have been allowed to do what they want when they want for the sake of soccer. NCAA won't have it.
 
Again you miss the point. I do t disagree, I applaud those getting creative. If I have a DD in the age range, we would have likely been there. I am just curious as to why/how this slipped past the scrutiny of certain members of this forum.
It didn't slip. There was a post on main forum and discussion got going but then post was deleted.
 
Too many Karens in CA.
Just wanting to hide in their basement until and if something comes along.
Bro, that was a low blow for all of Socal. I will think of a "too many" name for AZ folks. I have some ideas but I will wait. I can;t wait until we (our dd teams)) play one another brah. It's on dude. Loser dad buys first round?
 
Where is all the justice outrage when a 54 player “All Star Camp” is being held with 1v1 drills and video is on this forum? Are we just going after certain people? Is it for some but not others? Why is that?
It’s called selective moral outrage. @LuisAndres is the only person I know that speaks his mind, and doesn’t hide behind an assumed identity to be tough on a forum. The difference between getting all Karened out on me vs Luis is that you know where to find him. He’s not hiding anything. So if you have a problem with him, you can go tell him to his face. On the contrary, since I decide to hide my identity, all of you can act tough and bash me on a soccer forum.

Why are you hiding behind an assumed identity?
 
I can’t wait to catch one of you recording me or my players, especially my kid. The reason it’s illegal is because im telling you, YOU CANT RECORD MY CHILD. Under normal circumstances, nobody has ever complained about kids being recorded. These are not normal circumstances.

Sorry toughie, you are not gonna do squat. It's not against the law to film in public. So if you are in a public place, regardless of age, you have no expectation of privacy.
 
Let the kids practice!

I guess they where caught the coaches who where part of that “all star camp” even before this they deleted their post since they where getting heat for having the coaches faces blurred out
 
It doesn't bother me some kids are able to scrimmage. But the Dodgers fan in me says cheating in sports, regardless whether it's minor or major in nature, should not be tolerated.
 
I get worked up when Blues get dragged because my entire experience has been that the Blues follow the rules. Our team absolutely shut down when OC shut down. We started back up only when it re-opened. The Blues club made clear there was to be no training. So if a Blues team was scrimmaging it was a coach going rogue and ignoring the Blues leadership. Every Blues team I am aware of did not train. Slammers and West Coast however disregarded the orders and continued to train. I saw both of their clubs communications with their teams. So rather than attacking the Blues, which is popular on here, let's call out the single coach who did this. It was not a Blues violation. It was a specific coach. And, let's call out Slammers and West Coast for their utter disregard for the governor and Cal South's guidelines.
Point proven from the official blues dad! First, if a blues coach is having scrimmages and not following the rules, he's part of the club so therefore blues is is not following the rules. I promise you that "blues leadership" know what's going on. Also, I love how you want to call out a rival club when your club is doing the exact thing you are accusing them of doing. I am still pretty sure you have a kid on that team or you are completely clueless.
