Can a club refuse to release your player card?

Anonymous
ECNL Clubs can hold ECNL cards but not State cards. Will depend on situation if in ECNL.

Seems Bethesda hater is back from a comment above. 06s, 07s, 08s, and 09s hardly lost any players. 06s lost 2 players, 07s lost 2 players but picked up 2 better ones in place, 08s did not lose any players and added 4 players, 09s lost two players but added 4 players.

Anyway, OP has has eliminated any MD ECNL squads 07 and up because season has not started yet. Could be 08s or younger or GA in Maryland. Pipeline parents aren’t especially known to post here but I have heard some of its girls teams are having internal issues.

More likely Virginia. I would gander 07 FCV. Also could be 09 Metro as there is some Cancer there. BRYC on multiple years perhaps? This does not look like Loudoun, Union, Arlington or VDA as all have gotten off to ok or better start.

This is a classic dcum thread. Switched genders. His u11 team is getting crushed and or he isn't getting the playing time he wants. A bunch of his friends is his carpool.
We are only 2 to 3 weeks into the fall season. Chill.

Also don't try to play up your 6.5 year old to u9.

You think a u11 team would threaten to withhold a player card? Swing and a miss

Good point. I’m guessing ecnl or ga team. Probably fcv or bryc

Just to be clear, if you're leaving a CCL/EDP/NCSL team (which use VYSA passes) to go to an ECNL or GA team, the VYSA pass doesn't need to be released because ECNL/GA use something different (aka their own pass system)?


That is my understanding, yes.

Loudoun does it all the time


Jesus dude. Get a life.


But is it a correct statement?




It is. They did it to us. With two different children. In two different years. Nevertheless, it seems that Loudoun supporters think it’s one person “throwing shade” when in reality it could be just about anyone.

Besides Loudoun supporters, is there really anyone who wishes those sunshines any good?

I've no idea who this particular thread is about, nor which club. FCV may also be desperate as you suggest. Notwithstanding any of that, Loudoun has a reputation for playing hardball with player cards and petty, vindictive behavior in general.

The other thing to consider are tournaments vs. league play. Passes generally only apply to leagues, not tournaments. So if different registrars and/or tournaments v. leagues, releasing the pass may not matter. At the same time, you and your kids made a commitment. Why not just keep it and switch teams in the summer? Is it really that bad?

Must be bad if OP is ready to lawyer up. Probably wouldn’t get to court but arbitration or whatever but it will be a pain for both parties.

It's not even mid season. Why do you want to leave already? You haven't given it a chance.

Right. Do they have the minimal # of players and recognizing it's a struggle to get new players? Or club politics that bad?

We are in a situation like this where it isn't what we thought we signed up for. They lumped several ages into one group and my kid is playing up a couple years... and the fall game season was canceled. I'd like my kid to play on an age appropriate team with some matches.

I too would be looking for a new team for my DC if I were you. The club didn’t fulfill its part of the deal.
