It is irresponsible to hold this event or support this event.


It's not an "event" it is league games that are scheduled for the weekend of January 22nd. BRYC, Loudoun and McLean are all playing 2 different teams in NC that weekend. I have a DD on one of the teams and we have heard nothing. Anyone else?


Same situation. Crickets from the club....

Then be prepared to do it the rest of your life....and start wearing a mask during flu season. And stop driving


If the public health guidance is to wear a mask out during flu season then that is very easy to do. You whine and carry on about nothing. It is just a little piece of cloth.

You think the virus exempts families at ecnl events and only spreads among other travelerss? Get real. The virus will infect you super special soccer families just like everyone else.


Show me where a showcase led to serious spreading. If you want to shut down travel then do so but be prepared for the economy to completely collapse.


Where have you been? The travel industry has collapsed along with other economic sectors. What a shitshow. Get some competence in charge, get prole to work together in a unified fight and kick this virus to the curb. The virus is thriving on the disorganized, polarized, chaotic response. We cant beat this thing divided and with an "i'll do me and you do you" mentality...clearly. This virus is kicking our asses right now.


I’m still waiting to beat the deadly flu


How epdo a Ed Oo
S



if you were suffering losses like so many families are, you would not be making flippant jokes..consider yourself lucky....it is an ugly death for everyone involved.

we have wasted trillions on economic support that was never coupled with an effective plan to battled this little killer and we are still at square one...except the vaccine is here. Can we please all adds be team players until we win the game?


You can’t stop the spread. You won’t stop the spread. Learn to except it. You can only slow the spread. Just like the flu which is extremely deadly yet no one really cares about it.

We don't know everything about COVID and probably will not for decades. I guess if you want, you could just lock yourself in your compound.

There have been three major ECNL showcases since November with hundreds of teams, including some traveling from across the country to play. Each was held in a state with a positivity rate above 10%. Now if these were super spreader events then the showcases would have shut down after AZ or SC. It seems to me that it is safer to travel from VA to NC for a weekend of games between several clubs.


Brilliant to have showcases that require air travel and lengthy hotel stays so that college coaches can watch via livestream. As if showcases couldn't be reconfigured more regionally. Just stupid to fly across the country when D1 coaches can't even attend. What a great showcasing experience to have your kid show up as some grainy dot on a computer screen.


Naw, actually the video was quite good!


Ok, if you say so. I'm sure it replaces the coaches going and seeing for themselves and THEN using video.

On top of it, many schools are just not going to use video and will simply wait to see kids in person. It is a pretty mixed bag and the same thing can be accomplished without have to take a plane.


No idea what you are saying here.


Simple, if the game is just going to be streamed then just play locally. Find some clubs within a reasonable drive and do it that way.

The expense to travel when many schools are still not going to use the video is dumb especially when the dead period is ending in April anyway.

Save the travel dates for later when the dead period is actually over. Flying to play fill in the blank ECNL club to just be streamed when you could drive and play a more local fill in the blank ECNL team and do the exact same thing.

People are stupid.

Use video of localized games and scrimmages while we are in a pandemic to avoid traveling far distances and possibly contributing to the spread of the virus.

I think that is the idea.

It's a virus. It does not care who you are or what you do. It just wants to infect you and then move on and infect another, and then another, and another, and so, and so on, and so on.......
