[quote=Anonymous]Found these guidelines from England as part of "Project Restart" (the plan to start on June 8). Of course, games would be without fans. That's a given for awhile, but was kind of interesting was the level the undertaking they are launching just to TRAIN the players.

[i]"If training is resumed before social distancing rules are relaxed, BBC Sport understands players will be [u]tested for coronavirus twice a week[/u] and would be screened for symptoms every day.

All tests would be carried out by health professionals at a drive-through NHS testing facility that each club would have access to. Training grounds will be optimised for social distancing and high hygiene levels.

In addition:

Players must arrive at training grounds in kit and wear masks at all times.
They must not shower or eat on the premises. If clubs want to provide players with food, it must be delivered as a takeaway to players' cars.
Only essential medical treatment would be allowed, with all medical staff in full PPE.
All meetings and reviews must take place virtually and off-site.
--BBC Sports[/i]

Found this interesting because people often remark the reason there is no football is because of the crowd problem (which basically doesn't apply to youth soccer). However, this is quite a list they are undertaking just to train, absent any crowd issue. Not even sure the MLS is doing this level of oversight. [/quote]
