[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll spill the tea—Alexandria is all about collecting 'donations.' It pretty much guarantees you a playing spot and a top spot on the coach’s pet list.[/quote]

Oh yeah the pressure they send to families for donation is unreal.[/quote]

We've been with Alexandria for years.  I have never felt "pressure" to donate to the club.  Their payment platform does make it easy, and they've always got an option at registration, for sure.  They also send out lots of club wide emails about events and donations.  But never have I had the impression playing time or a spot on a team was dependent on it.  Maybe I'm missing something.  Keep in mind, also, that this is a multi-million dollar non-profit that runs rec leagues, futsal leagues, offers scholarships, maintains fields, etc.  It's not just your kid's team.  You should expect them to try to raise money.  [/quote]

Raise money so their directors can get a raise and nice bonuses. [/quote]
