Massively hilly…would take monumental spending to convert it into flat fields.

Games seem to be mostly Breton Woods and Soccerplex, at least for the young and medium ages.

Bethesda will hopefully build a facility soon

They pay for three turf fields that cost at a minimum of $1.5 million per year. There's no way they are building a facility.

Total BS statement.

Yes they do pay for those turf fields. In the W's high school area, they do cost $1.5 million. You tell me how they always have RM, Wootton and Rockville turf fields then.

Because they contributed to the field upgrades a few years ago and came to usage agreements. (WJ/wooton/RM/gburg). Same as MSI and WW, WC, and Einstein.

This was all public information from the 2016-2018 timeframe, regarding both clubs and agreements with Moco.
Bethesda has a minimum hours of usage per year for a long period of time (last I read was a 10 year agreement)

You thinking Bethesda is paying $500k per field per year for field rental is laughable!
No bad blood between the clubs and moco.
Fields were at a premium this past spring because the high school sports have first usage, and fall/winter/spring sports were all crammed into the spring because of covid.

These posts are odd. BSC paid for field renovations - there is no bad blood.

If they do, it won’t be anywhere near Bethesda, so I’d be careful what you wish for.

All over the place.
We left BSC because we couldn’t get to the practices anymore.
Kept moving farther and farther out.

Name the team. Certainly not any boys teams at U14 or under.

IDK - i'd estimate teenagers - were not Ulittles. Pretty obviously them though (wearing bethesda practice uniform, cars with Maryland plates). They also weren't that good - suspect one of lower ranked teams

Club will have less and less access to the MoCo high school fields. Some bad blood with the club and the county.
