    Wow, have we come a long way--"kits" are now part of the regular lexicon
    Now, if we can only remove cleats...

      The coaching is excellent.

      Really not too bad actually and not very different, in the end from other like sized clubs.....+/- 200 dollars.

      I would not play this much for other less GPS teams. There is where the scam lies since the training and coaching are significantly less frequent and weaker.
      What's really amusing is I'd bet you said all this with a straight face. The road to nowhere is rasing its toll each year and people will run over other humans to get their kids on the path.

      It's very unfortunate that many seniors don't come back to this site and speak the truth about where all this got their kids to and the end result. Embarrasst and exhausted perhaps ?

        $2900 and you don't start practices until late November ( HS soccer) ?

          What's most unconscionable is what they pay their coaches in relation to what they charge in tuition.

            Can't afford those fancy new Bayern kits unless the parents pay more.

                    I think the point is that all clubs are a rip-off if you are not on the top team.

                      Because the vast majority of girls teams are awful and must play down in order to win anything.? Is that enough elaboration?
