    No, it means you guy everything (uniform for home and away, warm ups, socks). $500 is about the norm anymore.
    Plus cleats and underwear.... $500 :)

      If you're wearing a full kit because you're actually playing soccer, you're not a FKW. If you are sitting in a pub wearing tube socks, though, you probably are.
      Having the warm ups... whatever they are ? Trackie ,bag , and any other guff you can think of is just advertising for the club you pay to play for . So not only are you taking it in the ass paying for below average coaching you are also advertising that fact and paying way over the top for it 😂

        Bit like a fat guy in the US wearing a football shirt and helmet to a game . Seen plenty of them and full kit wankers at sounders games capped off with a scarf 😂

          The PSPL Academy is not a club though. Its a representative team. Playing for the PSPL League representation team is advertising for the league, playing for them is doing them a favor. Why would you need to pay for the privilege of inferior coaching and then be forced to pay for a uniform? Could it be it is part of the contract with Surf?

          Never understood why people charge for things that actually make them look good. The PSPL should be doing it for free and any costs should come from the club and team dues that are paid to the PSPL by its members. As it stands the PSPL Academy is directly competing against its own members which is why there is minimal support for it. Focus on its role of making leagues and getting schedules right and creating a viable cup competition.

            PSPL is now letting in Oregon teams. Looks like a lot of meaningless travel down south.

              Which Oregon teams are you referencing? I'm not clear on which club you are calling out.

                Soccer Chance Academy from Portland is in the G06 WNPL2 division. I think it's calling out the PSPL for letting them in.
