[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your kid can play with the mask on if you want. We played Arlington yesterday and one of their kids did that.

Majority will not do it and we will simply do not play games in area that have mask rule.

Well let’s face it. If you play the majority of parents and kids will not follow the basic rules. Sick kids will play with full knowledge and support of their parents. Look at the Arlington coronavirus thread. Most of the Arlington players and parents are not checking temps before practice and games. Why? They just know better and see no need to check temps. They say it is stupid and does not work. Same with social distancing and wearing mask.

Let’s face it. The players and parents of the teams in two week quarantine are not mad at the players and parents who broke the rules. They are made at the rules and resulting quarantine. I bet the two week quarantine rule will be out the window very soon as clubs crack under pressure of the parents.[/quote]

We went through this over the summer when two coaches who had some interaction with a women’s pro team tested positive. They did not coach our boys.  All activity was suspended two weeks. We weren’t mad at anybody, though I certainly thought the reaction was overkill. If your kid is out there, you know this might happen.  Rules are not going to materially change the risk versus all of the other factors that affect risk outside the soccer field. It is silly to blame anybody or be angry unless the kid knowingly went out there when sick.  That’s on the kid and their family. Take some responsibility, folks. Not everything requires fault or blame, and each of us has choices to make in abundance here. You don’t like your outcomes, try making different decisions. For many, the only role that other people play is to contribute to their woes; victories I am sure are due only to their personal talents and efforts. Great to see so many soccer parents who probably did not play too many team sports growing up. That jogger mentality is on full display. [/quote]
