[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The combined ages are ugly, an all one year team playing all one year older teams, yeah not pretty[/quote]

The kids (ok really their parents) WANT to do this. They want to show up. Right now there is a U8 all stars team playing in the U9 age bracket. [/quote]

The schedule posted is from last year. There will be even fewer teams this year because it was so bad last year, orgs like Herndon and CYA are going back to FPYC.

Can't even wrap my brain around the travel team from Puerto Rico. Their families must have spent so much money to travel here. They were done dirty.[/quote]

CYA IS Valor. Can they really bow out of the Valor tournament when they partially fund it?[/quote]

I think CYA and SYA are forced to participate in it. After all Valor is their creation.[/quote]

You have it reversed, Valor split off on purpose as a separate nonprofit from the rec leagues (which are big community rec leagues that run lots of different sports) in order to be able to pay themselves more, charge more in fees, and not share any profits with CYA and SYA. However, the professional employees who are paid to run rec soccer for CYA are also paid separately on the side by Valor, so alot of their decisions put Valor interests above the interests of the rec league players. So Valor wanted to capture the all star fees from our CYA rec players by holding their own bad tournament and CYA soccer said sure who cares its just rec soccer. That's why the fees are so much higher than FPYC-they are getting guaranteed customers so why not gowge them.  (If Valor was running this tournament to benefit the rec kids, wouldn't the CYA teams be playing for free instead of paying $600+ per team?)[/quote]
