MLS youth league

Are you hearing that LAFC and LAG are returning to training soon, or are you just referring to clubs who’ve signed up for the MLS youth league?

MLS in Socal and other markets. Sounders and others are already back for example.

Galaxy has camps there trying to get going again and the facilities open which would allow them to use for youth teams also.

LAFC has plans to follow what the pro teams did: daily checks, limited numbers at first, just training drills, after they get everyone back for a few weeks progress to the next step, etc

LAFC is not returning to training until at least late July, early August.

Who told you that?

Already doing zoom sessions and they where in discussions to start invidual on site training starting up in earlier July last I heard from one of the coaches. Has that changed or some new developments are happenings this week?

Zoom sessions have been ongoing and the last zoom session will be this Thursday until they are back from summer break. Zoom or physical, in-person training won't resume until the earliest late July.
 
Sounders not back. Actually off for next 2 weeks, only doing zoom. They'll be back the 1st week of July.

Ah I see next week, guess I'm off or misunderstood the dates but only know players in the oldest group.

At least zooming is done at the end of month for most. Can't be much longer to get back on the pitches.

Usclub real league games are starting up and scheduled July 11st at the ie sports complex and Cal south has July play dates so soccer is starting back up it appears
 
Sounders are completely off until July 6, then start Phase 2 type trainings. At least, that is the current plan, but with new cases rising dramatically and Washington’s new mask order (issued today), who knows what will happen.
 
FYI, Johns Hopkins publishes state by state charts tracking daily positivity rates (new cases per day as a % of new tests per day).

Washington (immediately) below looks not great in the last 3-4 days but the rise is positivity% per day is likely a function of fewer tests being reported in the last 3-4 days (in the past, negative tests tend to go unreported for a bit in some places).

If you look at Arizona (second down), they're probably now in the worst shape in the country with a 22% positivity rate even as test volume has doubled over the last two weeks.

California, by contrast, has significantly increasing test volume in the last 45 days but has also maintained a relatively flat positivity rate. (third down)

Thinking about soccer and local businesses, however, would be really helpful if CA counties published this kind of positivity rate data county by county - to have an idea of what makes sense to do when - since positivity rates can vary significantly county by county, and even city by city.

Disneyland delays reopening until after July.
Soccer remains unclear, I imagine.

Tournaments yeah but training & later regular league games should be ok.

I'm optimistic but things are going slow so we'll see what happens next couple weeks
 
It is a rolling not spiking number.. each state has a philosophy on how to manage this. Our Gov. tells us if we do not comply he will restrict further. Now I am not anyone who believes this is not serious but we have to manage a lag time not the today time. Those that are positive today are in a 7 to 14 day window (jmo) set the positive graph back two weeks to match testing. Now average and hospitalization numbers and deaths become more prevalent. this makes the future average a little more predictable is my thought but again not a doctor. hey @Ellejustus a little math for today.

Of course there should have been a national policy.
Like every other country and like we have done every time before.
 
The evidence is starting to point in the same direction...masks work. They suck, but they work. 2 hair stylists in Missouri were infected and worked for several days. Contact traced 140 people from that salon and none of them tested positive. All were wearing masks, along with the stylists. IHME just updated their models last night to include a trend line that accounts for universal mask use.


Until there is a useful vaccine or treatment, masks are probably our best protection. We should be able to carry on with most parts of daily life while adding a mask to our wardrobe. Not really doable for athletes and even unsafe, especially in summer, so there needs to be some risk acceptance when it comes to sports and exercise (and yes, risk is part of life...so let’s get back to playing). Mask wear for most other times outside our household seems doable.
 
Update, 3rd week of July is the tentative restart date for training.

Diginity sports park will be back open for soccer starting week of July 20th and so will other facilities in Socal but don't know the details of which ones just yet but chime in if you have any info to share one way or the other.
