Do as you must but your naivety is a big reason this virus remains rampant.
My kids are in travel sports and do plenty if other activities, but you as a parent should learn when to say no.
Luckily when we started travel, all of the shared snacks went away.
Ummmmmm if they were having lunch gatherings, they weren’t getting covid from the food. Do people really still think you can get covid from food?!?
Lunch gathering is completely different. Just the process shared items passing through multiple people, masks off, eating, talking etc.
It's not the shared items. It's the masks off and being near each other.
We have known this for a year.

Maybe the stupid trend of snack snacks snacks will finally end. It was so ridiculous and contributed to the obesity epidemic. Orange slices are nice but sticky and messy. The individually wrapped required snack is a lot of extra work just to chubby up these kids.

I find that tradition weird. Both my kids eventually moved from rec to travel, and travel definitely doesn't do that (where we play). If you want your kid to have a snack after the game, you bring your own. Orange slices make a mess, so we generally do other fruit (sometimes mandarins). But just for our own kids to eat in the car.

This article is irrelevant. 8 people grabbing a slice of pizza is not necessarily the same as contaminated surface. But I would never argue woth stupidity- do as you see fit

I thought it was because the fields were turf and they dont want food on them.

What an American concept. Massive Gatorade for you U-little. Food at half (or quarters, lame), then LOTS o' food after game. I loved when snacks ended for my kids and I hope for future parents they are abolished. Dumbest thing I can think of.

Kid is waaaaay more likely to die from an allergy reaction with snacks than COVID.
Plus CDC says now that the likelihood of getting COVID from the surface of anything is nil. Just came out. What a joke.

I was just thinking that our kids team has never done orange slices like when we were kids even pre focus. I didn't realize other teams still do this
