[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The thing about soccer is that it keeps thousands and thousands of kids in MoCo occupied and out of trouble after school and on the weekends.  Not to mention the health benefits of playing.  It’s just such a huge positive.

I think there’s a lot of travel team parents on here (and I am too) but let’s not forget just how many kids play for MSI soccer and SAM etc.  Those clubs and most travel clubs have scholarship programs where kids in need can play for free.

My DD was really struggling - anxious, sad , lonely - until soccer picked back up again.  Please don’t take that away MoCo!  And if MoCo doesn’t let them play games, there’s a good chance the whole thing goes down the tubes (SoccerPlex is bleeding money).

I really hope they reconsider .... if adult pick up games are the concern, then focus enforcement on that.  Not the well-organized youth clubs that follow the rules.[/quote]

I agree with this wholeheartedly. My son is on an MSI Classic team, and the shutdown has been awful for his mental and physical health. Parents, kids, and coaches can and will abide by reasonable restrictions, but shutting every opportunity for exercise and teamwork among young kids is incredibly counterproductive. By failing to develop reasonable plans for reopening public schools and restricting youth sports so severely, our government leaders are really failing our kids.[/quote]
