The encouraging news is, no other players on either team have had symptoms or tested positive. This would actually be very good news, as to the low transmission rate through a soccer match.


That sounds very responsible and reasonable. Good for them!


That does sound good. Trying to imagine a scenario, though, in which my kid would play in a scrimmage one day and then get a test the next day. Symptoms first appear the next day and parents hustle the kid right out the door for a test after an hour or two of fever? (Seems unlikely.) Or if the kid was waiting for results (and received them the day after the scrimmage, rather than being tested the day after the scrimmage), the kid should not have been playing while waiting.


I have no idea what happened. But how do you know he did play? My assumption would be that he likely didn't play but that both teams were quarantined anyway.


The player played in the scrimmage and tested positive the next day, via a Covid-19 rapid test. His parents notified the club and the club notified both teams.

There are a variety of reasons for testing, many of which don’t involve symptoms or suspicion of illness. A friend of my daughter’s was tested before she could visit her elderly grandmother.

I am sure this happen to other clubs. They are all scrimmaging each other.


Just because a kid on a soccer team has COVID does not mean they got it from playing a an outdoor soccer game.


I think the point is that if your club has a positive case in Team 1A that they should let recent and upcoming opponents of Team 1A
Know if that positive. Not identify the kid(s). But allow others who may be at risk to properly know.


I certainly hope they do, as some Arlington Catholic schools are beginning in person instruction. I would hate for any school to be blamed for transmission that occurred elsewhere.

Boy 04, 05 and one of the girls team who went to Richmond. Lots of rumors but no word from the club. Guess they are just telling the teams involved?

I'm an ASA parent. You may be right, but I haven't heard anything about any positive cases. How did you hear this?

So they started scrimmaging other teams and clubs a week few back. I heard there are now positive cases on both the boys and girls side. Anyone care to share in terms of infection and start of scrimmages?
