[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are MD youth teams allowed to play games now? I tried to find a definitive answer in the state guidelines but didn’t see one. I would really appreciate a link to an answer. Thanks![/quote]

As far as I can tell the state allows it, but some counties don't.

This release allows youth sports in the state: https://phpa.health.maryland.gov/Documents/2020.06.12.01%20-%20MDH%20Order%20-%20Community%20Recreational%20Leisure%20Cultural%20Sporting%20Gatherings%20and%20Events.pdf

Specifically:

2. Youth Sports Gatherings and Events
A. All youth sports gatherings and events may resume sporting and other customary operations as of 5:00 P.M. on June 12, 2020 for outdoor activities and 5:00 P.M. on June 19, 2020 for indoor activities. Parents and family may spectate at youth sports gatherings with appropriate social distancing.

That said, I believe county rules can take precedence over this so for example Howard Co released this. allowing games, tournaments, etc:

This article indicates Anne Arundel is the same, as are Queen Anne, Cecil, Hartford counties: https://www.capitalgazette.com/sports/ac-cs-sports-returning-lacrosse-clubs-coronavirus-20200617-3bdiiund6fhgjfirjrxmbcfsx4-story.html

But Montgomery Co is not allowing recreational facilities to open yet, Soccerplex is renting fields but games not allowed, so I don't think games are allowed in Moco, can't find anything definitive for PG Co either, and haven't looked in to Baltimore County or City.

Hope that helps, though it's not a simple yes/no answer unfortunately.
