The club is working towards eliminating assorted team fees at U11-U19 levels of play for more simplified All Inclusive Club Dues. We understand families want to plan expenses for the year - receiving invoices at varying times of the year for assorted team expenses can be difficult and tough to budget out. We want to eliminate as many assorted team fees as we possibly can. Plus, this allows families the flexibility of breaking out the All Inclusive Club Dues into a payment plan throughout the year versus all at once, which we hope can help alleviate a large one-time expense and allows families to budget for the whole year.
While we work towards completing All Inclusive Club Dues, one area we are unable to include due to the varying nature of the expenses involved is attendance of an event outside of the Northwest. This is due to multiple reasons such as: The leagues we play in have not announced national event locations or dates before our tryouts as well as flights, vans and hotel costs can vary based upon dates and location. Our GA/ECNLRL teams have club travel while Aspire teams and Copa will be family travel. For these reasons events outside of the northwest will still be invoiced separately.
***Typically in a year our U9-U12 teams do not travel outside of the Northwest.
With our club dues you have the option to pay all at once or to have installments. We also consistently offer the best Financial Assistance - nobody should be unable to play because of cost.
Finally, all of us have experienced inflation the last couple of years. The club has felt the rise in expenses in all areas - refs, fields, fees from leagues and player cards.
Additional Fees
- Uniform Kit U9-U12 - Every 'even' year, the player is required to purchase a complete Adidas uniform kit that includes home and away jersey, shorts and socks, hooded sweatshirt, and training t-shirts. Backpacks and warm-ups are optional.
- Team Expenses (Outside Club Due Items) - Players cover the cost of tournament registration, coaches travel, etc. This amount depends on the competitive level of the team.
- Fundraising - Individual teams can offset their team expenses by through team fundraising. All players are encouraged to pursue Player Sponsorships to offset Club Dues and team expenses.
