What makes the MD Sports Commission smarter than the NCAA? NCAA considered soccer as high risk.
CDC considers it medium risk. Who is in a better position: NCAA or CDC?
You’re a complete idiot. What does CDC stand for and what does NCAA stand for? Soccer is a sport dummy. The are basing the sport if it’s high, medium or low contact. Key word here is contact. High contact sports lead to high risk to infection.
Their only mistake was calling lacrosse a medium contact sport. If parents want to change soccer’s classification, do it. But don’t compare it to lacrosse otherwise the county will classify both sport as high contact.

Watch this local TV news video below and tell me if the kids are crying or the mother is crying. LOL

Why would they cry now.. they're literally on camera playing soccer and happy. You don't know what they were doing in april. My 5 year old cried about swimming for a week straight. Now she's not.
The kids in that video looks very happy, mentally fit, well nourished and most importantly physically healthy. Why does the mother want to risk exposing them with soccer games? I always say, be careful what you ask for.

I think there’s a lot of travel team parents on here (and I am too) but let’s not forget just how many kids play for MSI soccer and SAM etc. Those clubs and most travel clubs have scholarship programs where kids in need can play for free.
My DD was really struggling - anxious, sad , lonely - until soccer picked back up again. Please don’t take that away MoCo! And if MoCo doesn’t let them play games, there’s a good chance the whole thing goes down the tubes (SoccerPlex is bleeding money).
I really hope they reconsider .... if adult pick up games are the concern, then focus enforcement on that. Not the well-organized youth clubs that follow the rules.
