The memberships fees are likely just as "included" as Spirit Season tickets were to those players.

Make no mistake, you AND your player are there to make money for The St. James. Whether it is a club membership, a party rental or a dinner at their restaurant as a part of your three and a half hour day dedicated to a practice.

Most Loudoun based families will not home earlier than 9:30.

This is the most quiet xFCV parents have ever been. What a glorious day!

You should never be allowed around children.

Great now all the BRYC ECNL players can come take those spots that FCV girls abandon now that it will be so close. Especially at that 05 age group.

Maybe the new uniforms will be free to soften some of the blow.

Why?

FCV was not purchased by a philanthropist. You are a revenue stream. Everything will be about getting every last dime out of you. The soccer club is an amenity to be promoted up sold. FCV was not purchased to be a loss leader. There will be no gifts. Have you ever been a member of a gym before?

FCV is now a Springfield club. Accept it and embrace it. Everything at FCV will be more expensive than any other club in the region and possibly on the east coast. Most Loudoun based families will easily spend more time in their car than they will at practice.

They have separate fitness and spa membership options.

Yup, "Separate" implies "not included".

I don't think you got the point. Spirit Season Tickets were also "separate" yet included in the price and not declinable.

I think there is a good bit of schadenfreude over FCV's plight because of the attitude of some from the Club on this forum. I always wondered about parents that are so loyal and over the top for Clubs. This stuff happens all of the time in youth soccer. They obviously haven't been around the block. You only should care about your own child. Every Club in the area is capable of the same sh*t. Parents are deluded when they suck up to coaches and club officials and put down everyone else in the area...and then blindsided when things dissolve or change without warning or their kid gets screwed over. I mean SYC, LMVSC, not getting DA for older Arl boys, the list goes on and on.

This has been a particularly turbulent spring even for youth soccer. It is now the Wild, Wild West.

FCV girls will go to Loudoun and other local options. Barca will probably get the Loudoun Gray team kids that are displaced down the chain.

I know many Loudoun parents that don’t want to do ECNL because of the travel involved and are heading to Barca.

not after Liverpool debacle.

Yes. Champions League always factors into our youth soccer decisions.

Not PP, but I don't quite ungerstand how "quiet xFCV parents" ( and it's been very very quiet last 24 hrs) and not being allowed around children don't connect.

FCVDad is probably buys trying to sort through the official PR message and letter that clarified everything. well, almost everything, something, not really.

Man City is basically Barca 2.0.

They sell it that way.

Also, I have seen Juventus getting in on the business out here

USMNT results factor into ours.
