This is inevitable. Lockdown is impossible and won’t eliminate the virus. You need to manage the spread and work towards immunity whiles vaccines develop and either fail or succeed.
Lockdowns have been shown to be the only effective way to manage the spread. If hospitals reach their carrying capacity, that's when death rates can really soar. See Italy.
It depends on what you mean by manage. If your ICUs are below full capacity, that can be one form of management. By manage, you mean prevent, and even that has proven false. See lockdowns in the United States in March/April. And you will see the return in Italy. Mark my words.
Actually, all you need to do is look to New Zealand and China. Lockdowns not only managed the ICU cues but have practically snuffed it out. New Zealand just had their first new case in 100 days and guess what, locked back down.
It works.

Ask your club what their plans are.
My guess is they will be relaxing the rules shortly. My DS' club spent two weeks doing what you are still doing, then two weeks where passing was allowed, but not scrimmaging. Then they moved to scrimmaging a week or two back and held inter-age group scrimmages this weekend. Many other clubs are on a similar schedule so sounds like you are with a super-cautious club.
If they don;t have a timeline mapped out to move towards normal play, you might want to think about moving to a different club.

Return to Play Update from Fairfax County Park Authority:
Due to the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, Fairfax County has made the difficult decision that athletic tournaments scheduled for the fall season will not be conducted in 2020.
Permitted use of fields at Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) and Fairfax County Park Authority (FCPA) facilities for leagues, organizations and groups of individuals during times designated for community use will continue. As a reminder, all sports organizations are responsible for ensuring that all players, parents, coaches and fans strictly adhere to CDC Considerations for Youth Sports and Forward Virginia Phase 3 Guidelines for Recreational Sports. Failure to do so may result in the loss of your permit to use fields in Fairfax County.
So I guess no WAGS this year
WAGs already had some age groups in Stafford and Fredericksburg so I assume all the fairfax county fields will move over to Loudoun (evergreen/movern) and PWC (Long Park, Hellwig, etc.) for the remaining games and it will be fine. There will prob. be a cap on teams and no teams allowed from "hot spots".
