OC got in trouble when some morons decided to send death threats to a mom with kids.

Dont like it? Stop holding parties "for just a few friends" and wear your damn mask.

I heard some additional info on that situation and Voice of OC called the OC supervisors out on it in a press conference....basically the whole Board of supervisors were mocking this woman in board meetings. So it is more than the famous idiot that all of the Karen's love Peggy Hall which was the big leader on the anti-mask movement in OC that lead to the death threats. That is baffling to me....at what point did people think listening to a yoga expert for legal analysis and medical knowledge was a good idea? I guess we can now see how people get caught up in cults.
 
The State created this situation of teams going "rogue" with at times less protocols and even some dangerous ones. One coach has even suggested practicing indoors. I know that for fact. I am guessing that is to hide given the mandates.

Our kids should be allowed some semblance of normalcy doing an activity OUTDOORS and socially distanced since all of the experts have determined that to be a low risk activity including the CDC. I would drive an hour to give my kid that right now. I don't think there is enough information yet about playing games but we are watching a live experiment this month with the woman's national league playing and MLS playing in Florida of all places.
 
Driving across County lines for drills?, Don't think my player would bother.

School starts up in a couple weeks, online or not ours requires live attendance during the day so early evening or night practicing will be the only options going forward for my player.

I hear its cut throat now days. I'm hearing from the rumor mill that some teams are looking outside of OC to practice. Serious commitment and I might say some dads are Jonesing.

Coach: Where were you
Player: Shelter in place
Coach: Off the team. Go get your things and never come back

I’m calling b.s.
 
These clubs (WCFC and Slammers) are putting themselves at significant legal liability. The Governors order covers the entire state.

I read an article about a 21 year old who ignored his mom's advice on going out. He went out with friends, caught the virus, gave it to his entire family, dad is in the hospital, and was put on a ventilator. WCFC posting their intentions to think outside the box to outmaneuver the governor is a lawyers dream. Idiots.

Good Ol Liverpool had soccer camps all week in OC. Always at the forefront of figuring out how to keep the money flowing.
 
I think not practicing sucks. I think we should all be out there.
Governor has given orders for no team sports. Yet tons of soccer, softball, baseball and volleyball teams are coming up with “creative” ways around these orders.
Either we all say “screw it. We’re gonna practice. Take whatever field you can get on (with or without a permit). Kids can show up if they/their parents feel it is safe”
Or- we all listen. And the state, cal south, us soccer and any other governing body needs to come down with harsh penalties for those that don’t listen.
Right now - what are we teaching our kids? If you don’t like the rules, it’s cool to break them.

Or just call it a peaceful protest.
 
Just curious, has anyone heard of any of the numerous soccer tournaments being played around the country right now being "super spreader" events?

I believe clubs all over LA and SD never stopped training camps. Just OC. Can someone in LA of SD confirm this?

Norcal here. Six feet apart, own ball, not even 1v1.

Backpacks are lined up 10 feet apart on the sidelines.

Not many fields available for rent, so many only get camp one or two days a week.

I hear a bunch of the clubs have changed the "practice" to a "day camp" to get around the OC shut down. I drove past a huge baseball kid camp the other day at a park, quite shocking to see that many kids playing in close quarters.

Not quite the same as a soccer “camp” but interesting news. I think most of the states that are mentioned in the article are also allowing sports in full swing.
