[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They love scholarships at Alexandria. If a kid receives free or reduced lunch at school, they qualify for at least a partial scholarship, if not full, regardless of their soccer abilities. The whole model of the club is based on providing access to everyone regardless of socioeconomic status. Underprivileged kids get opportunities they otherwise wouldn't, affluent parents get warm and fuzzies that they are enabling those less fortunate to have access to high quality extracurricular activities (and getting little Johnny out of his affluenza bubble), and the executive director has a bonus structure that is most likely at least partly based on number of unique participants in each of the club's programs. Truly a win for all![/quote]

They spend less on scholarships than they do on the executive director. Maybe if they weren’t paying that obscene of a salary more kids could actually afford to play. Their is no altruism there, just smoke, mirrors and fraud.[/quote]

And yet, they do give out more scholarship money than any other club in this area, and their non-scholarship per player travel fees are no higher to other comparable clubs which also offer all professional coaches.   I don't know how they do it, but they do.  [/quote]

That’s not really true, but believe all the fake news you want. We all know that Tommy and Alexandria like to hang out here and do anonymous self-promoting. The positive side to this is that maybe it distracts them from devising new and interesting ways to exploit the community. [/quote]
