If you have a solid 06G or 07G player sign them up to try out. This is an awesome opportunity for any player who is serious about soccer. We are so excited! And it’s Juventus. Hello?!?!? Cristiano Ronaldo!

Is there one person here that doesn't think this was written by someone from the club?

She clearly states her son played for the club when they lived in Maryland.

Technically the poster never discloses their gender. However, your comment nails the point. No one believes this is a legit poster. It sounds too sale-zyy

They look competitive to me. Pretty much every club in the area is making you pay this if your DC isn't on the ECNL team. One of the exceptions (low price point in this area for travel) is bryc bridge.

$2,500 for NCSL is not norm. It males them the most expensive in the area by a large margin

Depends on how you view it, but no, generally speaking it doesn't. Pretty much everyone in NCSL is paying ~$2K+ for a full 12-month cycle. Go check local clubs' fee structures if you'd like.

Arlington is under 2k unless you play Red Team

Vienna is cheaper except for top teams where you get twice the tournaments

http://vys.org/travel/2021-2022-tryouts/travel-fees

McLean Green is comparable, but still cheaper

https://mcleansoccer.org/registration-fees/

Can you point to any club more expensive? At least with the established clubs you gets teams that are actually in leagues

Loudoun is about exactly the same.
Vienna's Eagles/Phoenix is more expensive.

Loudoun is a scam. Overpriced for spam type coaching. Let’s not get into their politicks or their unethical corrupted antics

And for the folks on this board who are worried about upward mobility or being looked down upon by the ECNL team at their DC's at existing clubs, maybe this will prove to be a good alternative for those parents and their children.

hopefully anyone considering this club does their own research. Personally, I'd be wary of paying top tier prices for a club that is going to have to take all comers and, at best, will have lopsided teams. At worst they will end up with a slate of mixed age group teams practicing wherever the bigger clubs haven't already reserved all of the space which will mean the worst fields at the worst times. That's all fine if you know what you're getting into, but it's disingenuous to imply that the kid will be trying out for and playing at a large club under Juventus' umbrella rather than a small club licensing the name

I would take your own advice and do the research. This team will NOT take all comers. They already have several girls signed up to try out. And oh yeah the link went up yesterday morning. Juventus is a WORLDWIDE ACADEMY. I'm pretty sure they're not going to have a hard time finding practice space. This is 100% under the Juventus Umbrella. They have PROFESSIONAL COACHES FROM JUVENTUS in Italy travel to visit and advise their youth programs all over the world 4 times a year. I'd pay top tier prices for a Juventus team over any of the local area clubs on any day of the week. Wow are you clueless. Yeah bc a small club licensing their name could legally list JEEP as one of their sponsors, let alone put it on their jerseys.

I invite you to visit the official Juventus website (you'll want to choose the english version bc I doubt you speak Italian. If you did we wouldn't be having this conversation), go to the pull down menu and select ACADEMY. Then choose The Programs, then Year-Round Training. Then feel free to look at their WORLDWIDE PROGRAM LOCATOR MAP. Enjoy feeling stupid.

Sucker, just write another check and keep telling your friends your little johnny plays for Juventus and italian coaches are coming to train him. so funny. Oh and its Ronaldos club forgot that part. Maybe he will be on the bench for little johnnys next game. bring the family

No where do they claim these academies have any path or affiliation with their professional team, other than branding and training philosophy. They are selling the experience and the brand and it works. Barca does the same thing. So does Arsenal. It's good business. Having had kids play at one of these branded academies for a while, I never felt they were selling something they weren't. Was it high quality? Yes. Was it expensive? Yes. Did my kid have a good time? Yes.

Path no but affiliation yes. It’s on the official Juventus site. Juventus Coaches are trained by the professional Italian coaches. And yes it is about the branding, training and philosophy. But I don’t think that’s a bad thing. I think there’s more accountability in these clubs whether they are affiliated with or using the branding, philosophy, etc of these professional clubs.

The negativity people display on this site is always so interesting. No one said Italian coaches were coming to coach “little Johnny”. All I’ve see is someone had a good experience with Juventus DC Metro and they’re happy there will be a VA team for her child to try out for. Everyone needs to calm down.

Damn I wish! I walked away from my computer a while ago thinking surely this will all die down. You are some very angry parents. I’m super sorry my excitement has caused such a ruckus. You don’t like or want to be a part of Juventus Academy then don’t. I promise to never voice excitement about anything ever again. Unless it’s my soufflé bc it’s pretty amazing!

no reason you can't be a mom and a club employee. If you actually work in marketing, this is a pretty hamfisted attempt to publicize the club

As someone who’s kid was previously with Juventus I can assure you she has much better things to do with her time than this. And you obviously don’t know her if you would make such an insinuation.
