Premier AC has a sponsor on their training tops. No sponsors on their game jerseys.

Not true I haven't any ECNL or former DA tams with sponsors on jerseys. Branding like Nike or Adidas aren't sponsors


Bethesda's training kits have a sponsor on it.

We had that back in the day - 1st/2nd division 80s NCSL teams. We thought it was really cool. I think we only had one jersey and didn't have all the other BS of backpacks, etc. I can't remember the last time a saw team with that.

I have younger players so new kits make sense every 2 years. At what age do they keep the same sizes for 2years+? I rather enjoy getting some new kits after 2 years of use however our club has never required backpacks.

I thought I saw Loudoun now has sponsors on their kits. Shoot if they actually offset the price of kits or dues using sponsors would be great.

But while we are in the subject, I can bitch about soccer kits? What a freakin' scam. I am so over it. Based on my experience, every club "requires" new kits every two years. When kids are younger, I guess it makes sense because the kids probably outgrow the uniforms. The absolute worst, though, is when your kid joins a club in the second year of uniform rotation (as mine did last year), and then has to buy all new uniforms the next year. I wish that clubs would give families a choice this year. I don't feel like spending hundreds of dollars for kids my kids won't wear for the second year in a row!

Another huge annoyance is when a club changes sponsors altogether. So you know those extra Adidas socks you bought so that your kid would always have a new pair? Now your kid isn't even allowed to wear them to practice.

And don't even get me started on the "required" backpacks. I look in our garage and feel ill when I think about the food and necessities for families in need I could have purchased instead of so many $65 backpacks.

OK. Thanks for letting me vent.



No club I have ever known ever enforced the backpack. Just get one that is the same color.


I've been doing this for a while. Some, but not all, have the online ordering system prepopulated with "mandatory items" so you can't get past it.



Also not true with bags.

If the club changed from Nike to Addidas, kinda sorta. But there are ways to just order the things you need. Look at the site a little deeper.
