How do you count the players? Competitive only or a combination of rec and competitive? -
Maths
U9-u18 - 10 age groups
10 age groups x 2 genders x 2 teams x 20 players/team = 800 players
They don't have 2 teams/age group and gender. They don't have 20 kids per team so 2500 isn't even close.
Sounds like a TA fact to me!Comment

I actually asked him that question recently and his answer was about 1/4th of the number mentioned aboveOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

count every player in the club - rec on up....rec is just as important as premier...some people don't understand that the rec base is where most of your players can come fromOriginally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Historically from a revenue perspective it has been FC Portland... 1 million. The other bigger clubs being in the 300k to 500k range. Not sure how the last few years have gone though, but you can look up the tax filings.Comment

Eastside Timbers and Oregon Rush are probably both over the 3000 player count as well with one caveat. Oregon Rush is part of the Rush franchise which serves 39,000 players nationwide which definitely makes it the largest club. Obviously the local portion is no where near that.Comment

Thought:
It is difficult to compare clubs based on gross revenues. When my eldest played at FC PDX, air trips and rooming was planned by the club. A player gave them the money beforehand to cover airfare and room. My youngest played at a club where you booked your own air trips and paid for the room directly at the site. Hence, no conclusions can be drawn from gross revenues.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

OR Rush, VT, and Eastside are the largest.
LO used to be one of the largest before they merged with OSSA.
WUSC has a huge rec component, but no classic... (I do recognize that it has grown significantly).
THUSC has no rec program, not sure what this original poster was talking about. They might as well count all the WT kids as well for that matter. Both WT, THUSC are small compared to the clubs that are based out of communities.
FC is the same as WT and THUSC.
The classic soccer doesn't determine the size of the entire club, it's the rec side of things that carry the numbers.Comment
