[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find the "practice player" option offered by ASA to be pretty appalling.  Pay $550 but only play in games if a "real" player is not available?  No thanks.[/quote]

Let me help explain.  Practice player formerly called a "reserve" did not pay the same price as a "real" player as you called it.   That has been the way they have done it in the past so I assume they will handle the same way this year.   The practice players pays less, goes to all training and all league games.  They do not go to travel tournaments like Northeast Regionals in NJ or such unless of course and injury has occured or a "real" player cannot go.   From my experience the reserve player has gotten every opportunity a "real" player has gotten on my kids team.  Meaning that player ended up at every tournament due to reasons mentioned above and paid considerably less to get the same value.

Now from ST James website their league cost for Futsal is $900-$950.  Alexandria is $550 per player.   The practice player I assume as described above will be less and it should be.

Given what I stated here (from 3 years of experience) what do you find appalling?  
Seems to me Alex is significantly lower in cost and the practice player gets a fair deal.   They are a practice player because they are not one of the top players on the squad but the are on the cusp.   Allowing them to play on the team and engage with the top players will advance them to a "real" player versus dropping them to the second team where they play with less skilled players

Hope that helps explain it[/quote]
