One would call this a money grab



How much does it cost? I’m asking to see wether or not I should bring my son to a “tryout”


Tryout is free and then it's $350. Just a money grab... young kids should play pickup and just have fun doing what they love. A dumb DC United jersey isn't going to make them better.


Wow that sucks

I would have taken this more seriously it it wasn’t 350. Just imagine how much money they are taking in from this

There were not that many kids at the downtown tryout for winter. Enough to run a program but my guess is they didn’t cut anyone.

He tried out for the fall program, even though it's for 8yo+, because he typically plays up and didn't make it. I was impressed with the competition, but seems like it may vary season to season and location to location. Will update on the program, 1st practice is Dec 8th


Is it free?

Hello! Just trying to get a feel for what to expect with the winter session. It sounds like each location's tryouts have spots for 50 kids in each age group, and about 20 are selected. Does that sound about right?

What age is your kid? What league, club and team do they play for?

Those are details would help us understand your subjective “good.”

If a kid is at a club like Villareal in NOVA, DC RDS will look like La Masia.


Older group U13-U15: various clubs in MLSN2, ECNL RL/NL.
