How will this work? Is it social distancing? How do the economics of this work- 9 kids, field rental, cost of the coach, etc


9 kids / 1 coach.

45 kids/ 5 coaches.

Many of these coaches are being paid regardless.

All sports don't use fields



LOL you have no idea how thing work do you?


LOL i know my kid starts sports camp in 2 weeks in moco and its not on a field.

Find someone else to worry about.


PP - what camp is opening in 2 weeks? Our sports camp cancelled. Would love an alternative.


There were a cpl people who asked me which camp i was referring to in moco opening Monday and another PP told me good luck. Yes, our camp is still starting. But if you are still interested, there are a couple listed in a thread the camps/ daycare section under those open for the summer. Pages 5 plus list a couple moco sports camps. Mine isnt there but still good alternatives.

This year wasn’t great but it was a surprise.


Don’t believe anything they say if it’s not in writing. And right now there’s nothing firm in the contract about refunds.


We heard this from a board member - but agree best to have in writing.

When you click to register, the actual Tryout locations are Richard Montgomery HS or Walter Johnson HS. I guess not being able to obtain a permit is not preventing BSC to hold tryouts at Public Schools.


Do not need to read too much, it is a simply outdated info they forgot to update. Just email them to get it fixed.

Its not 2 new or additional free weeks. They normally give 1 free full day week to players. This is 2 free half day weeks as they only have half days now. So it seems they are giving the same deal that all players got before covid.

It's normally one free week, and we normally don't do that one either because their camps are terrible.
Except for the residential camp, which we're obviously not doing.

If you don’t like it, stay home.


Bethesda parent here as well. I have not heard of such a thing. Isn't the season over for most age groups? What age group are you?



I keep seeing folks talking about BSC restarting training on here. What would they be training for at this time? The "potential" for a previously cancelled tournament to be played in the Summer?



The Ecnl teams never stop training. Theyll be training for august--> Fall

As long as the camp adheres to the social distancing and 9 players+1 coach requirement, they are allowed to hold camp.

Hence, expect more camps. Whether or not parents will sign their DC up for camp is another story. I am not.


Privates schools will follow the county guidelines on opening their fields. Otherwise they open themselves up to liabilities. One coach and 9 players sounds great but you can not make money let alone break even.


Maybe not. All they have to do is have include the liability waiver as part of outdoor field rental. The liability will then fall upon the club/organization that runs the camp.


We're in stage 1, Maryland youth soccer says individual training only. In stage 2, they suggest 10 per half of the field; so BSC might be able to rent a private field with a liability waiver, but they can only have 20 people on the field. Or they face even steeper liability because they are not following the state youth soccer recommendations.


stage 1 is up to 10 total on a quadrant- 9 players 1 coach

Individual drills only. No goalkeeper training.

BSC and other clubs will have small practices soon.

Hogan moved group practice to phase 1..i wonder if msysa will also...


What Hogan and MoCo does is law. MSYSA can only issue guidelines/recommendations. Hence, clubs/organizations don’t need or require to follow MSYSA since it’s not law.
