You are the problem

So no one should be sending their kids to soccer practice? We are the problem if we do? You are on a soccer thread. Are you saying that you don't send your kid to soccer practice? Full contact soccer practices currently meet the current back to play guidelines. I'm not sure why I'm the problem.

Do you drive 65 on a snowy highway because the sign says you can drive 65?

So you are saying that there should be no soccer practices and everyone should stay home at this point? If so, honestly, do yourself a favor, and leave this forum because this forum is about people talking about their kids playing soccer and you aren't going to change anyone's mind.

Nobody has said don’t go to soccer practice.

What people have said is don’t go to things like sleep away camps. And if you do go away to a sleep away camp get tested before returning to team practice or stay away for two weeks before rejoining.

Doing a sleep away camp in the current environment is dumb and reckless because it is unnecessary. So do it if you must but stay away from the team until you are deemed healthy.

At the very least let the team know where you went so they can make a decision to attend a practice your kid might attend before being cleared.

for the love of the children
we must all quarantine. stay in your homes. we must unite as one and defeat this virus by taking precaution and keeping our children safe.

I am going to soccer fields tonight to report those in violation of precautionary measures. someone has to stand up to the madness

Please quarantine your child upon return from camp.

No, sleep away camps are a dumb idea, soccer or otherwise.

My kid is 10 and the camp was the highlight of her summer after being locked down for 4 months. She would gladly sacrifice her entire Covid-era soccer career for a week of camp.

I've arranged to have her tested on Monday and will keep her home at a minimum until the results are back.

I’m sure it was the highlight of her summer, because she is ten and doesn’t understand what is going on. My kids enjoy riding around in the back of a car without a seatbelt too. They can move around, lay down, turn around and look out the back. They have so much fun on road trips that way. Looking in the rearview mirror and seeing the smile on their faces makes the risk worth it.

(doesn't sound much like camp at this rate but that's another story).

Upon return to DC would you have kid skip soccer practice for 2 weeks?
Soccer practice is of course also "distanced".
Thoughts?

OP, I have seen many soccer practices in the past two weeks that were not at all "distanced." Don't expect that this will be the case for your kid. Please keep him home, not just out of soccer but everywhere else too.

Not true. Many pharmacies are doing tests.

You can’t just get a test. You have to meet the criteria. At least in VA.

This thread like everything has spiraled out of control.

Test your child. Send to practice if negative.

When we don't beat back this virus and every one else's kid doesn't get to participate in normal school, sleep away camps and fun, organized social activities- well, remember that some people were selfish.
Yes, OP please keep your kid and your entire family home for two weeks so you don't anyone sick and we don't have to waste tests on people who act in their own self interests.

I would get a Covid test and if negative I would go to practice.
