[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So now that folks have mostly processed things. Are memberships included for those being rostered? Or is that something that's coming later? Also, any idea when the morning yoga session, love to get my meditation on then grab an overpriced latte on the way out the door.....then drive 40 minutes home. [/quote]

The memberships fees are likely just as "included" as Spirit Season tickets were to those players.

Make no mistake, you AND your player are there to make money for The St. James. Whether it is a club membership, a party rental or a dinner at their restaurant as a part of your three and a half hour day dedicated to a practice.

Most Loudoun based families will not home earlier than 9:30. [/quote]

Maybe the new uniforms will be free to soften some of the blow.[/quote]

Why?

FCV was not purchased by a philanthropist. You are a revenue stream. Everything will be about getting every last dime out of you. The soccer club is an amenity to be promoted up sold. FCV was not purchased to be a loss leader. There will be no gifts. Have you ever been a member of a gym before?

FCV is now a Springfield club. Accept it and embrace it. Everything at FCV will be more expensive than any other club in the region and possibly on the east coast. Most Loudoun based families will easily spend more time in their car than they will at practice. [/quote]

Cost will stay exactly the same.[/quote]

Only during the transition year. Once Evergreen is out of the picture the cost will go up.

Futsal prices will rise due to the facility rental. Field cost will rise because of the facility rental. Every other way you can get milked, from 40% of "regular membership dues" included in your fees next year will go up.

Fees are the same now because everyone paid a deposit for the coming year. But like your cable bill it will rise next year. The St. James wants a return on their investment. Have you even looked at their membership fees and what they charge for access to everything ON TOP of the membership fees? You really believe that they just LOVE soccer and they are gonna just let the FCV kids and parents just have FREE access to their facility because they are making a cool $300/head per registered player for a year?

Do you really think Christian is working two jobs now because he made such a killing on this sale if he could be retired in Cabo?

So the only way this venture for the St. James turns a real profit on this is to turn FCV into a poor mans IMG. [/quote]
