[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$2000 or $3000 a year is just not a lot of money to many people in Loudoun and surrounding areas. It’s just not.  Many will pay that much for a few weeks or a month of summer camp, or any number of other activities, iPhones, etc. The prices are market driven and in this market it’s reasonable[/quote]

This is true if you are trying to assemble the best "payers" from the greater DC area, but it is not true if you are trying to assemble the best players.  $3000 is a lot of money especially if the family has multiple kids that want to play soccer.  [/quote]

Let’s be honest: Assembling the best payers is absolutely the goal of every club. Even the so called not for profit clubs are still trying to make enough to sustain themselves, and competition with other clubs in the area necessitates paying for fields, coaches, and so forth. Until we have top caliber fields and coaches available for free, it’s always going to be market driven.

Paying for multiple kids is well within the means of plenty in this area. Families send multiple kids to expensive camps and buy iPhones for all their kids.

Yes this is a shame for developing the best soccer players in the area. Many clubs in the area do have scholarship programs for some players who can’t afford it, including Barca, but the player needs to be very good.

Welcome to a high cost of living area.
