Next year. They would keep the kids with offers and the strongest can try and play up. The rest just practice? Not clear. Trying to validate.


Would not be surprised if this was true...

I'm hearing that they will only have U19 team and all the players will have part-time jobs to pay for equipment and uniforms

Since people believe anything they read on the forum

With DCU literally anything could happen. Finances have always been an issue with the academy.

Sounds like a great opportunity for those kids to escape the clutches of DCUA and get in with a different academy!

Sounds like someone can sell you the Brooklyn Bridge with the contract written on a McDonald's napkin

Bus program dropped? Where did you hear that from?


Right now, they are planning to drop the bus program. Budget is hurting because of full time program. That is what they are telling new parents coming in for next season.


We are new and were told the bus program will be running.

If you've had any dealings with DCU for an extended period of time what you know with certainty is that when it comes to communication, especially about bad news, they are the absolute worst. They don't have a strong understanding of the quality and frequency of communication that is needed
