[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought they had been over charging for years in order to build up the sustainability fund. It seems like this is the time they should be using those funds to give proper refunds .... maybe that fund is more subterfuge from the board and club.[/quote]

I had two in Alexandria this year (one is graduating), and they each have played for other top area clubs. Alexandria's fees are not out of line with anybody else. As for playing in house tournaments, my younger kid was slated to play three outside tournaments and the ASK, same as Arlington for that age group (theirs is the ASIST). My older kid was slated for four outside tournaments, plus State Cup, two CCL showcases, the Alexandria showcase, and the EDP spring conference. Seems in line with everyone competing at that level.

Don't forget, regardless of not-for-profit status, this is a business not some city service. There is overhead, bonding, field and facility rentals. I'll be none of that was prorated.

There is plenty of room for improvement -- I would like to see top teams move into ECNL and pursue more regional/national competition, and have the white teams pursue state-wide prominence and compete in second tier competitions such as President’s Cup -- but as for the cost, it’s the going rate.
