Who's on the CalSouth Naughty List?

watfly said:
Ultimately your correct; but doing nothing isn't an acceptable course of action either. They should be forming a coalition with other youth sports organizations to represent their constituents best interests (doing so alone wouldn't be very effective). That's what associations do. They have to at least get youth sports on the radar. As of now, youth sports is nowhere to be found on the states Blueprint for reopening. I'm just not a fan of "shut up and obey" approach that many would have us follow.

Folks going on 7 months and counting. Get it done now. Unacceptable BS!

Does anybody really thing CalSouth has any power in this situation? The state and county governments will determine when youth sports can resume play. Take up your complaints with them. What a bunch of whiners.

I tend to agree with this. CalSouth is just as much of a bystander as we all are. This statement is the closest thing we have to them saying "hey we're just a bystander too." I cannot imagine a scenario where CSL, SCDSL, ECNL, etc, want to engage in discovery about internal emails of "hey it's okay to take the risk and start our leagues now".

Wow. Really. Is that where we're at now...lets just be subject to the whims of Covid and the arbitrary decisions of politicians. Lets do nothing because its probably not going to work. Lets not even try. Very disheartening if that's peoples attitudes.

That is not my attitude, I just think youth sports are far down the list of priorities, as they should be. I believe that when schools are allowed to have sports, so will the rest of us. I am sure that in the process of formulating how to reopen schools, school sports are part of the discussion. Since youth soccer depends on school owned fields for many games and practices, we are kind of stuck waiting for them anyway.

I have accepted the reality and have helped my youth player find other activities. His team has started practicing within the guidelines (no 1v1, but he says shooting drills are fun and allowing him to learn more as a defender). Soccer is great, but now is the time to do all the things there wasn't time to do when soccer was year round. Live it up.

Why have other states juggled multiple balls at once including schools and sports and not California? Plenty of time has passed. Also, data is becoming clearer every day that we should have never shut down anything other than nursing homes in the first place. Any state or city still shut down is being run by imbeciles. WAY past time to be back to work, school and sports.

100% agree with you on all points. I've said before I don't care that much about soccer in the current environment, but I'm incredibly passionate about the need for getting kids back in school. Like you said youth sports are likely tied to schools reopening, but youth sports can't just piggy back and hope for the best. They need to at least try and carve their own path.

If I have to look at the silver lining of Covid, it couldn't have come at a better time for my son soccer wise. He was pretty burned out after 24+ straight months of DA soccer including 1 year with a really shitty coach. He didn't touch a ball for 3 months and now he is revitalized after spending that time fishing and surfing. We took advantage of the Covid break but now I'm over it with kids not going back to school. My son would probably rate the Covid shutdown an 8, might daughter probably a 3. It all depends on the kid...and their age...and their gender. Live it up.

This is how you do something. Remove this tyrant. It is is not a republican or democrat thing. it is s state of California need. I don't even care if another democrat takes over as long as the person removes the emergency powers and allow the elected officials to return to being able to drive policy instead of just 1 person deciding on his own.

Funny, pre Covid there was a Recall Gavin stand in front of our Walmart. I made the snide comment that we just can't go around recalling people just because we don't like them. Obviously, they knew something I didn't.

One of the most significant times, and still no results in allowing outdoor soccer games. Shameful when considering how long it's been. Again, where's the leadership? Is Calif the last state not allowing soccer games?

How about a Disney Tournament? Maybe a salon since that seems to be okay for some... The Cuts & Color Classic.

Thank you for your honesty. I'm helping mentor two teen boys who are studs. One in Water Polo and one in La Cross. Stanford and Notre Dame are after them respectfully. Both of them are burned out. Both are Jrs. Both hate club and their over demanding club coach. They just want to play the game and have fun. The hardest part for them is their parents and disappointing them.

Interesting...I am not an attorney but I do read contracts and litigation documents in what I do. While I am guessing, I am pretty sure that the attorney for Cal South had them add in the above comment to remove themselves from culpability but the reality is, they are the governing body for soccer down here so I find it doubtful that statement would relinquish them of their culpability in a court of law should something bad happen and may even add to their culpability because they are essentially stating to all involved they are only going to suspend coaches and not much else. Of course passing the buck for enforcement is common place here in California so who knows.

Yup. "Nothing in this communication is meant to be a rule, policy, protocol or other." That's a $300/hour sentence if I've ever heard one.
 
So a politician broke a rule and got snitched on and now she knows what it's like to be snitched on by a bitch....lol. Cal South has police roaming the fields looking to snitch. Something is wrong very very wrong and will get fixed soon. No one is really following the rules because this is not as serious. I was at home depot and_____________forget about it.

Does anyone know how many more signatures are needed to have this included on the NOV ballot?

Blue's coaches?

Nope. No Blues coaches are suspended. Blues operate by the book from leadership. As a grown adult your jealousy is a little embarrassing to witness. It was Slammers who circumvented the governor's orders by calling team training "camp" after the last shut down. It was West Coast who moved training to Oceanside to run practices to circumvent the gov. Blues shut down training and followed the gov's orders. But keep on with the lies and dishonesty if it suits your agenda.
