Surf Cup bracketing

I never noticed anything except the beautiful weather. I see one dude in the red hat who is in violation. The other people have mask. Not bad.
Not saying I agree with it, but the rules say you have to be 6 feet apart no matter what ( mask or no mask). It's kind of absurd, but that's how far they had to go with the rules. Just saying again, it doesn't really bother me to see it, but that's how far they had to go with the rules.
 
This photo shows how difficult it is to police the fields or enforce their posted rules, which are kind of over the top. Not that I really care but technically there are several violations visible in the picture. I am only pointing out how this conflicts with the posted rules. Do I think anyone is harmed by what you can see, the answer is no.

Masks are mandatory for all individuals at the facility
. Only athletes, when on the field playing, are allowed to be without a mask but they must wear a mask until they take the field.
• All players, coaches, referees and parents must follow all facility guidelines and remain 6’ apart at all times, whether sitting or standing

Regardless, it's nice to see kids playing soccer.

Thanks for another useless post moron.
 
It was a clear hand ball in the box but center did not have good vision to see it. Young kid AR should have flagged it as it was closest to him but no call. Oh well, I never get mad at refs. They are trying their best and aren't getting paid Fifa money. What was pretty funny, other team scored first and kid told our defender " Welcome to Arizona "... little smack talk, I'm fine with that it's part of the game. We scored the next 2.....yep yep
I tried refereeing a Rec game a while back with only parents as AR. 3 shots hit the crossbar and bounced down in the game. I called one a goal. There was no way to tell if the ball crossed the line in any of them. On the 3rd one it looked like the net moved and the kid acted like he scored. The other 2 were shots by my son's team. After the game I told them I couldn't tell and no one acted like they scored so "what was I supposed to think". Ref's have an impossible job at the youth level, although some are pretty bad.

Ok, you did your best that's all that counts and only a small group step up to ref anyway. Critique yourself and look to improve where you can. Watching high level games and the way the center managed the match helped me.

I was bad when my player was younger. I feel bad I took it so serious. I was nice to teens trying to earn a buck. The head ref guy who was out of shape but acted like he knew it all was my struggle. I will say a meet and greet before the season starts with the refs and all the players and parents to share what good sportsmanship is all about would have helped me. Nope, they sit us all on the same side lines and let it all play out.
 
You really have anger issues you should have dealt with soon. Use the quarantine for something useful and not to build up your anger towards others. I pointed out how stupid the rules are and it still bothers you.

There's no reason to keep focusing on this BS every post. Kids are playing, parents are doing a generally good job with the China virus guidelines. Yes, I had my mask on all game. Make soccer comments.

The city of Mesa is apparently upset that certain guidelines are not being followed close enough according to friends we know and have told surf their participants need to do better or else. Not sure what the else is but apparently there watching very closing, have rangers coming by and reviewing footage.

I heard that to but our game was in Scottsdale and it was not crowded there at all and everyone I could see was masked up. I have to wonder about all these teams coming in from out of state where they have zero strict mask guidelines like California. They might be to relaxed on the sideline because their particular state has relaxed china virus guidelines unlike kommyfornia. I saw no one at our game on the sideline without a mask and we were well spread out too.
 
t is not the one who coined it the China Virus. I've always said it's the bat virus from Wuhan U in the city of Wuhan. It got out from a lab..

I did in a loose way, but I have no will to go back and forth with you. I can tell from your other posts that you know the game and have respect for you for that.
