New Youth Sports Guidance

Why do you say that?

Many clubs charged something to parents during lock down. If season is not happening, they will try to justify it by running training/camps or whatever just to get kids out there. AYSO don't have to do this. 99% of AYSO coaches wouldn't know how to run distance training anyway. I just seen one the other day trying it and it was a disaster. Do you really think if colleges canceling their season, youth soccer games will resume in Fall?

Texas Tech fires Stollings one day after report

Texas Tech fired women's basketball coach Marlene Stollings on Thursday, a day after a scathing report alleging a culture of abuse in her program.

Another reason Youth Sports needed to be bleached and some coaches need help or some need to get out of the sport altogether. I'm willing to give everyone a second chance or third chances all the way to nine second chances. If a cat can have nine lives, we should have at least nine second chances in life. That is plenty over a lifetime. I'm on my 7th second chance btw :) The old way was insane!!! I know so many stories of girls and their parents being used all because of Title 9. Mean and manipulative coaches who abuse with mental abuse. This was at all levels of sport. Clean up time this fall so we can get ready for the new way to play sports. For the record, not all coaches need a second chance, if you know what I mean. I know for a fact we have good coaches in all ages. We just need to get the bad ones out and the good coaches who messed up a second chance if they want to change.

You are right. Paying hundred per month for social distancing 6ft x 6ft seems ridiculous. The kids are not getting better. Just a way for the club and the coaches to continue making a living.

Distant 6' training is maybe 1/3rd of what players need, the older the scale goes the less value.

Club fees should be reduced a bunch until the other 2/3rds can be done in training, scrimmages are possible games can be played. Paying for a full pie but only get a slice is not going to work eventually.

In California, no....almost every other state with a higher case/million and deaths/million YES as we already see with Texas, Arizona, Florida to name but 3.

As for AYSO, anyone willing to put their kid into AYSO would likely also be their one willing to Volunteer at this point.

Wow look at Nevada. Had no idea til you pulled out the chart. If that course continues unaltered, looks like just do tournaments in Nevada isn't going to be a viable option either,

The driver is a killer...it's the outer edge of driveability and brutal for just a weekend...would everyone on a Socal team want to fly right now?

And it starts to get cold here in October. Kids here play the end of the season in the snow.

p.s. just had the thought there's likely not going to be Halloween...that's so sad.

I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking that in SoCal soccer forum anyone worry too much what's going on in other parts of the country.

That is terrible. How many kids that would have played won't be coming back? This is going to hurt the sport especially the girls. In a country where we struggle to keep kids in sport through their teen years this will be devastating.

you can blame TikTok for that distraction

Yes, I see club soccer games (or scrimmages) resuming to some extent this fall. College and high schools are distracted with their main priority of providing an education. AYSO is recreational, volunteer based and have a huge national cash reserve so not as much urgency on their end. Clubs however are dependent solely on kids playing so I do see them preparing for games as soon as state/local governments allow it (fingers crossed) by this fall.
 
We were told today that a friends club was telling players no games until December. No official announcement, but it's so annoying when this stuff floats around before any official announcement.
