High School Soccer's Fate

Good for CIF putting this out so there is a way if county and local health also agree. " Adhere to local county heath guidelines"

Snowboarding & Golf is happening. After Jan 25th if you want compitetion.

Soccer hopefully gets reclassified to moderate (red tier 2) from substantial (orange tier 3 ) so we can actually have a season. Going to be really difficult to get to orange tier 3 for Socal.
Is there actually a somewhat real effort to reclassify soccer? Everyone can make arguments for or against the sport they care most about being classified a certain way, but soccer’s placement does seem a bit conservative. Not that LA is going to be out of purple in time to play this school year anyway, but for precedent for next year or for club sports...
 
I've told my kid if she wants a Varsity letter this year Track is where its at.
My dd has been running around a lot lately bro. She ran 100m and 400m relay as Fr and had a blast and I think she will look to do something to stay in shape. We had a long chat last night about her first sport she fell in love with, soccer. It's time to hang those cleats up and look to so something else :( She has no access to beautiful fields like others do or live in another state where they allow kids to play sports. At the end of the day, no legal soccer in socal is allowed in socal if one obeys the rules socal kdg until summer at best. That's me being Half Full Dude and Mr Positive. It could well go into Fall 2021 before my dd is allowed to ball again and that's only if she still wants to play this game that has been so cruel the last few years. She had opportunity to take a deal and play in the freezing cold and snow, but she is socal all the way kind of girl ((I think)). I am so super duper bummed for her and for so many kids. Basically, the girls will be off 18 months ((unless you have access to fields)), plus if you add the year she got ripped off with lies and then the year before that with even more deceit, then my dd has only played 15 sanctioned ((league games from club)) in the last 36 months or three years. I know so many players that have not skipped a bit training wise because they have access and so many dont. I hope I'm wrong and a miracle can happen and the girls can play soccer for free in high school this year. Last but not least and no fault of any club, I paid $3200 in the last 12 months for one league game and one showcase and a few zoom practices and weak 6 x 6 that was lame. This sucks!!!!

I am not belittling anything. I am questioning shutting down youth sports but allowing shopping to occur at Walmart, Home Depot, and Macy's. That is the point you miss. Also, can you cite an example where someone caught the virus in a game or at training?
EOTL is working on that stat for us we are just waiting and waiting and waiting for her to get back to us. I heard he went to New York two get some stats. hang tight
 
No I don’t know of a single case of a player catching virus during play. But that’s not where it worms it’s way on to the next patient. Could be dad’s chatting on touch line. Or ref talking to coach. Who knows.

Yeah going to shop has it’s risks. Mask up, keep apart, get the work done and git on home. Minimize contact means minimized chance of transfer.

I’m no specialist in any of this but my mom-in law is 94+ and I don’t want to be an unintentional delivery service. I’m way back in line for the vaccine but will look forward to the day I get my turn.
Interesting. you mom in law should be isolated and not have any visitors. you shouldn't be over there if you have been out of your house....at least that is what the leaders say the science tells us.

Right on. 94 year olds need to get their s**t together and do everything themselves, but also do it by never going anywhere. Why would a 94 year old ever need to interact in person with other humans anyeay? They all have unlimited resources so they can DoorDash every day. They’re also all in great health and don’t need any help with daily activities. And if they’re not, they deserve to die because they didn’t do enough ab crunches and eat more vegetables, right @crush?

Are you actually arguing with someone who stated people with risk factors should ‘Stay at home’ when we’re in a ‘Stay at home’ except for essential services public health order that you vehemently support?

My mom lived to be 90. Her last month was hell. Many of these deaths with Covid is added to their pain. My mom's last night was pure hell and no Rona. I'm sure if she got Rona in her last stop, it would have made death sooner maybe? Heart failure is heart failure and the End Of The Line for many. Thanks for being away from the forum during Christmas. I saw that as respect for the believers.

if they are in danger they should stay inside. if their family takes care of them then they should wear 2 masks or they really don't care about their elderly mother. And mostly don't fly to New York!

But @Grace T. says masks don’t work. And what about those at nursing homes and long term care facilities? Is it your expectation that employees who work there can (and should) effectively eliminate any possibility of transmission? And how about older people who don’t have children to rely on or live with? And even for those who do, should they increase the risk of death by moving in with their kid and soccer playing, school attending grandchildren, or should they increase the risk by living alone but going out to Target and the grocery store to get essential items so they can, uh, eat. What about those who live in different states than their kids? Should they get on a plane with a bunch of sniveling soccer players and their bar hopping daddies coming home from Surf Cup, or should they continue to live alone?

Seriously, your schtick about what older people should and shouldn’t do has no basis in reality.

Maybe this will help EOTL
