Hey hotshot, ECNL/GA only last 6 years, so try that as $3500*6=$21k plus time & travel. If you're going to make a point, at least use real numbers.

OK, real numbers:

U5-8: Fall and Spring rec seasons, each year
4 x $250 = $1000

U9-12: Travel seasons, uniform, team fees, a few weekend tourneys worth of travel expense, each year
4 x $3500 = $14,000

U13-18: ECNL seasons, uniform, team fees, 10 weekend tourneys/showcases/fixtures worth of travel expenses, each year
6 x $10,000 = $60,000

$75K just for the teams... And not including all the camps, private training, and co-pays for therapy (both physical and mental)

Who needs private training? Insecure parents need it for their DD.

Who needs any of it? That's the point.

Wow - they really screwed up on some of the lower level girls teams. Remind me - can they lose ECNL if the girls don’t improve their records? If so, they are going to be back in this same place in 2-3 years.

They haven't played one game yet and the haters are already furiously typing out their lame opinions. There sure is a lot of interest in a supposedly bad club.

Confirmed the LO is calling the shots and CW is just the assistant. LO got more of her bubble players on over CW's. Also changing formations to LO's next year confirmed by CW himself.

LO is in charge yes, the rest is false. To much CNN at home.

There was better outside talent at the tryouts that need to be selected over bubble players. I hope this is not true and it's merit based so folks don't have to switch clubs next year when the team stinks due to this.

It was not merit based. They made some very weird choices.

Have they posted the team selections for some age groups? How do you know there are weird choices?

They’ll also spend $10,000 for a family vacation every year. What’s your point? Kids are expensive

Sorry Mclean 2011G you got pwned. LO is the head coach it says so on the website and that's what she announced. We knew she was going to do everything she could to keep our players and our formation. CW took a step back even though I heard he told Mclean players he was going to be the coach. I guess he never said assistant. ha ha.

CW is a relic. His reputation was build when there was only Mclean and FCV and they had all the talent but the scene has changed. See Bill Belichick.

Mclean gave up its full ECNL membership for a 1/3 membership when it didn't need to for the girls, only the boys were at risk. So Mclean you made your bed and now it is time for new coaches to take over. You let the fox into the henhouse.

Word is that CW might be a nice guy but assertive is not his thing and its about 4 years too late to ride off into the sunset.

Back to my beer.

Dude give it a rest. Given the track record of Brave and the ever evolving landscapte this thing is going to last 2-3 before something else happens and everything changes again.

Don’t think this is a Brave parent. At least not 2011.

Ya, agree, not a Brave parent. There is no Brave parent sitting and gloating over a beer right now given how the rosters are turning out.
