[quote=Anonymous]I believe that at the DA and ECNL level a club should be able to give a talented player who otherwise doesn’t need financial aid a waiver or discount in the normal fee structure. Why not? At the same time they can also give out aid to a qualified player in financial need. It is their club, they can do whatever they want. Especially DCU and WS as they are tied to professional teams. The pro European teams do this, so why not here? At the DA and ECNL levels it is about both winning and development and positive brand recognition by the three primary customers: players, college coaches, and youth NT scouts/coaches. If the business thinks it can accomplish this by cutting fees / giving aid and staying in business, then that is their call. Playing elite level soccer is not a right, it is a privilege. Most have to pay, some don’t. Those that don’t are probably the best at least in the minds of those offering the aid. If you don’t get it for free and don’t want to play, then play normal travel and/or high school ball, but don’t begrudge the players that get it and clubs that provide it. [/quote]
