[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We committed to a club for next season, but we were just offered a spot on a better team with another club.   I was wondering if anyone has ever backed out of their commitment  with a club and if they were held liable for paying the full fee?  We were told that we would be responsible for paying the $2k if we leave because we took a spot that could have been given to another player.   I think this is crazy because we are giving them advance notice; and they have plenty of time to find somebody else to fill the spot.[/quote]

From the relationship perspective, they have a right to be unhappy. Best to be honest there as another poster said. Contracts are broken all the time.
With regard to carding, they would not have applied for player cards yet, so there should be no complication there. If there is, it would be a punitive measure on the part of club to punish you. 
From a financial perspective, the contract is the thing, but you have quite a bit of leverage if your dues are on a payment plan, as opposed to completely paid up front. [/quote]
