[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of these “street soccer” programs love to hype the play free and play with friends but then start adding “$20 dm for location” posts and then show up at a basketball court somewhere. We care about the kids but only charge $20 to care about them. [/quote]

Bethesda charges $50 for free play with s--- competition.

At the "street soccer" program we play with, sometimes we pay $20.  Sometimes $10.  Sometimes free.  It all depends on the cost of securing the location.

But the kids are all MLS Next/ECNL from the best clubs in the area.

The policies of "street soccer" is more a test of your character and they weed people out who are the source of club "politics."  The ballers in the area don't require turf fields and goals to get busy.  A tennis court and some cones will still allow them to get busy.

[/quote]Is the value prop organized free play with other skilled kids? I know of kids who go and was just curious.

Why would it cost $20 per person to play on a free outdoor tennis court? [/quote]

How much would it cost you to assemble 20-30 top MLS NEXT/ECNL kids for your kid to play with?  How much time would it take for you to search for available facilities to play?

For one, we have never played on a tennis court but I know some organizations that do and you are referencing those organizations.  If we ever did, as long as the kids are there, my kid would not care.d  I don't knock them if the kids are having fun, we can play in an alley.  However, I know my hourly rate for running my business and $20 is well below the effort of meeting and organizing 20-30 MLS NEXT/ECNL kids for pickup and then coordinating available space that may be occupied unless it is reserved with the city/county or somebody gets there early to lay claim.  It is at least 20-30+ hours of accumulated work and at least 2 hours of specific work for each session.  I know my hourly rate is waaaay above $20/hour.  You have a basic disrespect for people's time which is why I would reiterate, you are the source of club "politics."[/quote][/quote]Is the value prop organized free play with kids who are good at soccer?
