    All major clubs in Oregon subsidize players!

    Scholarships are huge.

    Thorns subsidize overpriced trips to play bad teams.

    Other clubs use a needs based approach.

    There are NO other clubs that pay a DIME toward players travel and expenses other than GDA Thorns.

      The thorns aren’t doing a good job either. Hopefully it gets better.

        EVERY player that made a Thorns roster is subsidized.

          Many clubs gives needs based scholarships that include some travel costs.

          Hopefully thorns don’t affect eligibility since their scholarship money isn’t needs based.

            Thorns isn’t great but at least it’s cheaper than some options.

              We just had our yearly auction here in Vancouver. We raised $135,000. All of that money will be allocated to kids that can’t afford to play the game. Is that a bad thing? Geeeez!

                Thornz don't either. Parents pay $2000 fees for travel in a 70's panel van. There is no fee for coaching/training as Thornz have only rec-level coaches, and it shows.

                  No need to worry - Thornz have never produced a college level player.

                    Except for the $80K that you're going to use on permitting and Engineering fees so you can pave just the driveway of your parking lot, right?

                        Name one other club in Oregon (other than Timbers DA of course) that subsidizes the travel expenses of entire teams for the entire season.

                          Thorns parents only pay the first quarter million of travel costs.
