Arizona Youth Soccer Enters Phase 4 – Competitive Games With Less Than 50 Spectators
The long-awaited return of youth soccer is finally here … in Arizona. Progress is possible, even in areas that only weeks ago reported record numbers of confirmed cases of the Coronavirus COVID-19.
Gone are the days of a crowded sideline and players hugging in groups after a goal, but at least competitive games in the state of Arizona will start being played after a long suspension due to the Coronavirus COVID-19.
US Youth Soccer’s Arizona Soccer Association (ASA) has moved to Phase IV of the state’s of our Return-to-Play guidelines effective August 17.
The entire Arizona Soccer Association and its member have continued to demonstrate their commitment to minimizing the spread of the pandemic, and returning to play in a methodical manner — and, are now able to benefit from all their efforts.

SoccerToday takes great pleasure in welcoming Kristi Beckman as a new columnist with this refreshing and personal take on being a female in a still male-dominated soccer world.
In my coaching career, I have stood on the “shoulders of giants for years”. Those giants were always men: men who were brave enough and secure enough to elevate a woman.
These are interesting times for us all. I find myself defending men when your entire gender is called male chauvinists, or accused of being bullies. I smile sweetly and say, “Not my guys!” I’m smart, and I have surrounded myself with the best leaders and humans in the industry. You.

States Differ on The Return of Youth Soccer
As the custodians for the next generations, we are responsible for caring for well being for today’s kids — and, the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic has been stressful for all ages. Isn’t it time to get kids out of the house, in safe conditions, and at least with modified training? Hmmm, small groups of school age kids under adult supervision, doesn’t that sound like childcare?
Isn’t Youth Soccer a Form of Childcare for School-Age Kids?
Amidst the uncertainty of the pandemic, it is important to think of the unintended consequences. How are kids dealing with the moratorium of youth sports?
Kids need to be active, outdoors, and away from screens. The Return to Play youth soccer, even in its most modified form, is healthy for kids.
