What's your best guess as to when trainings will resume?

Mortality rate is still at 0.02% for the Virus in the US?
Based on the latest CDC "best" estimate I saw it was 0.4% for people who show symptoms and 0.3% assuming that about a third more people get it but don't show symptoms. The range was from 0.2% to 1.0%. As you might have noticed, there will be "experts" who don't agree. So, you can pretty much count on finding an "expert" who supports a different range.

 
Perhaps this has already been posted somewhere but it's pretty detailed. Definitely don't see tournaments happening this summer, particularly those with a large out of town/state/country attendance like Surf Cup and Manchester City Cup.

ECNL put out guidelines for return to play:
Only about 5 states have any return to play dates so far, Return to play recommendations
https://t.co/4SV3cEVUzi?amp=1

Phased approach, 5 steps.
starts with 9 + a coach and will be 6-10 weeks before play to reduced risk & injury.

Face masks use by players & coaches should be in accordance with local guidelines noted in phase 2.

Cal south needs to come up with something eventually but they don't to be in a rush since no dates on the horizon just yet.

In any case this is going to drive up the cost of youth sports will all the new guidelines some clubs & facilities just won't be affordable or practical anymore as a result.

Please see my response in the other section of the forum..... I am seeing 6 weeks maximum not 10....... follow up question is why won't some facilities be practical once opened?

Answered 6weeks is their minimum, could be 6,8,10 weeks depending on the situation. 2 weeks each phase there are 5 phases to the plan.

Staff and costs to open some Facilities to practices like schools with the new guidelines will not make it practical.

The increased costs just to reopen schools is a big problem there trying to mitigate now. Renting out fields and meeting whatever the new guidelines will be is not a priority and some won't do that anymore as a result.
 
Does anyone think we will not be wearing facemasks in 6-8 weeks? Guarantee we will be here in Cali. You won't be able to fully train without one then bc 6ft rule. I don't see kids playing games/scrimmages with a facemask requirement this summer. You should hope for normal game play (not tournaments) in September, October and first half of November. Many on this board need to adjust their expectations.

Depends on the location. Ventura County doesn't seem to believe in them, particularly outside (they've hesitated to do a mask order even for indoors like markets where it makes more sense). Los Angeles County is insisting you wear a mask even on the beach (which is a rule now widely being disregarded.... maybe 1/3 complying, 1/3 refusing 1/3 cheating when walking outside from what I've seen and headed towards less compliance). But yes, a mask order from LA County would be enough to derail practices and maybe the season in LA county.

According to the state:

"There is limited evidence to suggest that use of cloth face coverings by the public during a pandemic could help reduce disease transmission"

CDC just said today that they have enough resource to show that mask covers about 50% of virus. Most countries in the world are using.
Personally, I don’t understand why people have a problem wearing masks to go to stores. Exercising is a different issue but going to a store is not a big deal.
Now to the good news! Phase 3 has begun in all but 11 counties. Wednesday the state will begin to talk about summer camp guidelines. I can’t wait to get my kids out of the house. Lol.

The fun/non-soccer camp my kid goes to just rolled out its guidelines: no pool, no horse back riding, no bus, sack lunches, masks required, distancing. Can't see many people taking them up on that offer unless they are really hung up for day care, but they'll be operating at reduced capacities anyways. Soccer camps can't operate under those guidelines....the only thing they could do is coerver and agility all day long, at least until the first kid passes out from the mask and the heat.

The other issue with the masks is that they are not all created equal. That 50% figure applies to surgical masks. The bandanas don't really seem to do anything with most fabrics, especially after a wash. You'd actually be better off with that stupid crochet mask Alyssa Milano got ridiculed for (it has a carbon filter).

I saw the first soccer camp going on advertised on the soccer boards for Temecula. Large crowd of kids, no distancing. I'm pretty much in the "we are overreacting" camp but doubt I'd let me kid attend that....at a minimum I can't see how he has insurance coverage for the camp and since they are doing pickup games an injury is not just possible but probable.

Zero deaths in California for under 18. Only 5% covid cases for 0-17 age group. 80% deaths for over 65 years of age. What’s holding you back from sending kids to summer camps?

9+ a coach, huh? With many ecnl teams having rosters of 20+. And limited field space. Would like to see how this can work. If the younger age group (non ecnl) teams are allowed back at the same time- if there is limited field space (due to 9 players at a time) which team gets short changed?

I would estimate that at least 85% of Temecula residents think Covid-19 is a hoax.

I don't know how it will work, and my kid has not shared any details of what her cub is doing. But if I were the coach, I would break the team into two groups of 9 (1 keeper in each group & assuming 18 are ready to train). Sessions are as back to back as I can make them. 1 group is ending while the next group is warming up would be ideal. Get the girls working on conditioning, long passes, through balls, longer range ball movement, etc... Yes you would need a large area to work with, but if you can find that (while not breaking any rules) then it would be a way to get back into some type of rhythm. I don't want anyone to get sick or spread the virus, but I would like to see some small return to normalcy, for her mental health and mine.
