[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCV will take over BRYC to get back into ECNL and sell STJ memberships. Loudoun will strengthen. Arlington and Mclean will merge their girls program and strengthen. My prediction.

Done

Why would a gym double down by buying another club?

It is more likely that in a few years the St. James dissolves the soccer side of things than it is open to mergers. The St James is a business first and foremost. [/quote]

Memberships. Thats what gyms acquire. It costs them nothing to run FCV. The parents pay everything. Lets be for real [/quote]

And how many memberships have they acquired with a Loudoun based soccer club?[/quote]

Do you think STJ is paying out of pocket to run FCV? Get a grip. They make money all different ways [/quote]

The St. James is not a youth soccer company and the club needs to actually make them money not simply sustain itself.

While they make money in many different ways and the margins made on a soccer club make it unnecessary to their bottom line. It either carries itself and is profitable or they just dissolve the club. But purchasing another club isn't going to make them any more money. Their brand and business model is not youth soccer. They bought one of the few available for profit clubs in the area which was easier than trying to start their own club from scratch.

A merger with a non-profit simply muddies the waters as they are a business after all and not a community non-profit. It is also unlikely that BRYC is "for sale" either. If a merger were to happen it in fact would likely go in the other direction of FCV being bought by a local club.

A merger is not a purchase. A merger is a mutual agreement to share resources. In such, STJ gains more memberships. [/quote]
