First, it's actually ridiculous you think it's ridiculous. You don't have to be an aerodynamics engineer to figure out a 5 lb object covering appx 80% of a surface area doesn't disrupt airflow.

Second, if you are a parent not washing your kid's gear regularly then you should look in the mirror. That awful smell coming out of the gear bag is a clue. How about just keeping a spray bottle of tilex with bleach handy.

And to the pp, in the state of MD there are no deaths attributed to those under the age of 18 so it's not that it's not as dangerous, it's statistically not dangerous. And that's not only in MD but across the country.

If you are so worried about the chance of someone playing or practicing or living in the world and dying from contraction, you should safely stay inside until a vaccine becomes available at your neighborhood CVS.

So much anger?  The quarantine clearly has effected your psyche.

Everyone knows people don't sterilize gear after each and every practice and game.  Yes, this will need to change.  But to definitively state that girls are at more risk than boys is, as I said, RIDICULOUS.[/quote]

It's not anger, it's responding to stupidity.

Neither girls or boys are statistically at risk. Here's the link to age related deaths in MD https://coronavirus.maryland.gov/[/quote]

Do you have #’s on how many they infected?[/quote]

I am so glad you asked. The current overall infection rate is about 1.0  This means an infected person might pass on the infection to 1 other person IF 
the 2 people are in close contact for more than 10 minutes continuously
AND 
the infected person forcibly dispels the virus while in close contact
AND 
the other person takes the virus into their internal system

About 1800 kids under the age of 18 have tested positive. Most likely, the number is closer to 10k at this point from other studies done across the country. But given the necessary conditions of time and distance to spread the infection and the overwhelming number of deaths occurring in nursing and assisted living situations, I'd say they have probably cross infected a very small number of people.

I get it,  you are scared. Please stay home and let the rest of us go back to work and lead our lives. [/quote]

DP.  Sure I will stay home.  But likely you will be doing so as well.  Most tournaments CANCELLED.  Next year is sketchy.  Sorry you put so much emotion into a stupid sport for kids.  We're focussing on academics, which is more of a sure thing for college admissions.  You people are crazy.[/quote]
