Placer United stirring it up

No indoor training at Placer right now. They have told their members that they have secured the Maidu Soccer Arena for trainings which I believe qualifies as "outdoors". Not sure if that was done in anticipation of not being able to use their indoor facility for awhile or if they are just looking to secure additional fields.

Isn't that a fairly small facility? I'm guessing they have other fields available.

Placer has always used other fields as well. Teams typically practiced 2 days outdoors and 1 day at the indoor facility.

But don't they usually use public facilities, hence more directly subject to and influenced by govt mandates and restrictions? I cant imagine the schools are letting them use their fields. Not that I care but it could get dicey for them if things get to tight.

Soccer clubs that own their own fields are not choosing to ignore state health guidance either, so I’d say that puts everyone in about the same boat. As long as non contact practice is allowed, city facilities will continue to rent out fields as they have been, and clubs that own fields will continue to utilize their own.

Placer is still using Mahany Park and Cirby Elementary but they have not been able to use Del Oro HS which had several fields. I believe things have gotten tight as some outdoor practices have only been for an hour

Placer played in that tournament around Thanksgiving (doesn't look like it went well for the club).

Any idea if they had any infections? What their quarantine protocol was when they returned?

I haven't heard of any infections. Unfortunately our team was supposed to go to Arizona in Dec which of course got cancelled. Quarantine protocol is 7-14 days post participation. Our coach did travel to the Thanksgiving tournament and then quarantined the following week so we just trained with another coach.
 
With all the bad press Placer United got, will the Sacramento news stations turn their ire on Blues FC if it turns out that they do play at Olders Surf Cup? In Region 5 every club ( Sonoma, Marin, Napa, Mendocino counties) appears to have backed out but Briceno. Is anyone hearing of any word from NorCal Premier regarding potential actions taken against member clubs or are they just leaving it up to the counties to tell them to quarantine or fine them?

Placer County soccer parents are decedents of those Donner cannibals. If they see an opportunity chew someone up, they will take it.

I don't believe norcal wants to get involved in enforcing county health and safety mandates. In fact, I don't think that crew could even read the mandates...concussion protocol wasn't a thing their time.
