[quote=Anonymous]In light of Montgomery County’s amended Executive Order dated 8/5/20, we felt compelled to write to our Montgomery County clubs and organizations.
We, like you, are obviously very disappointed that soccer has been moved from a medium to high risk sport to further curtail your ability to put players out on the field in a safe way. While we are disappointed, we do however, have to continue to encourage you to follow all applicable local health guidelines and restrictions.

There are severe repercussions (fines up to $5,000 and even imprisonment) that have been instituted for those that willfully disregard the Executive Order.
 
We want you to know that the Maryland Sports Commission is actively engaged in conversations with Montgomery County leaders to try to get these decisions, that impact soccer so dramatically, amended or improved to allow a little more flexibility for soccer organizations.
 
Until such time as there are amendments or revisions to this executive order, it is in place, active and must be followed by all Montgomery county constituents.
 
We have known for quite some time that returning to play would be a difficult and winding road with monthly, weekly and even daily changes that affect all our operations. Soccer has returned but definitely not as we know it! We encourage you to stay the course, do the right thing and continue to engage your players, coaches and families in the most appropriate soccer environment that you are able to provide.
 
Please check out our website for our most updated guidance regarding Return to Play: https://www.msysa.org/msysa-return-to-play-guidelines/
 
Thank you for all you do to make the soccer community of Maryland a better place every single day.

Flo Egan
MSYSA Executive Director
