Our Costs to Play - for the 2019/20 Competition Year
We strive to provide the highest value competitive soccer in the area. As a not-for-profit we focus all of our fees are applied for the betterment of the Club and its players. No single individual or ownership group owns the club or profits from our athletes ... as such, we are dedicated to maintaining relatively low operational costs while offering the highest quality soccer, individual player development, and player (family) enrichment programming (e.g., wellness training, college preparatory advisory, etc.).
We generally maintain our club fees for a two-year period. This period alternates with the years where we must have a club-wide purchase of uniforms (which we also maintain for a two year period). This year we will NOT need a club-wide uniform purchase. As such, the do need a nominal increase in club fees. These fees are based on our projected number of players balanced against our operating costs (field rental, league fees, profession fees, insurance, etc.) and our strategic plans (defined annually by the board of directors) for the upcoming two-year time frame. The matrix below reflects the Club Costs for the 2019/2020 competition year.
