[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Other than the manufacturer, I don't recall seeing any.

But while we are in the subject, I can bitch about soccer kits?  What a freakin' scam. I am so over it.  Based on my experience, every club "requires" new kits every two years. When kids are younger, I guess it makes sense because the kids probably outgrow the uniforms. The absolute worst, though, is when your kid joins a club in the second year of uniform rotation (as mine did last year), and then has to buy all new uniforms the next year. I wish that clubs would give families a choice this year. I don't feel like spending hundreds of dollars for kids my kids won't wear for the second year in a row!

Another huge annoyance is when a club changes sponsors altogether. So you know those extra Adidas socks you bought so that your kid would always have a new pair? Now your kid isn't even allowed to wear them to practice.

And don't even get me started on the "required" backpacks. I look in our garage and feel ill when I think about the food and necessities for families in need I could have purchased instead of so many $65 backpacks.

OK. Thanks for letting me vent.[/quote]

No club I have ever known ever enforced the backpack. Just get one that is the same color. [/quote]

I've been doing this for a while. Some, but not all, have the online ordering system prepopulated with "mandatory items" so you can't get past it.

Even when there is a list of mandatory items you're not forced to order everything on the list. [/quote]
