Yep, Arlington, but they are using the same system / process they used last year - nothing changed, but still unforgiving considering the circumstances.

They may lose players for good. My DD has a great many other interests that are more Zoomable than soccer and have provided much needed normalcy & enjoyment. We have no pressure from our club right now (kudos to them) but we'll see what she decides to do when things start to normalize.

the younger ages groups of BRYC had a deadline of yesterday. No idea on what percentage is returning.

yes. exact same terms (longer to think about it) and we accepted. I anticipate we will be in at least in stage 2 and can do practices. I'm fine with that. bonus points for stage 3 with scrimmages ( wishful thinking).

My oldest decided to not to play the next season and use the extra time to prep for SAT and ACT. We still got an offer even after telling the coach.

Arlington 72 hours

Bethesda- had to give answer for ECNL teams by May 9th or so

Lmvsc - 2 days to accept offer. No refunds or credits given.

Not planning to and have talked to a handful of parents of teammates who aren’t committing or will wait until end of summer and re-assess. That may leave the club in limbo, but they should cut the high pressure BS.

We are leaving SYA and playing rec if there is a season, but the cost is a huge stretch for us financially. Hope my boys don't fall too far behind the kids who stay in travel this year.

Did you ask about refunds, if there is no fall season?
