    We see you... little cartwheeler who has a bright future in gymnastics and probably will be out of soccer in a few years bc of lack of quality training and playing time. Parents stop drinking coolaid and bring her to a different club! Hoping the future is bright for MaryLou somewhere else.

      Future is bright, trust the process, proven pathway, players first, somersaults and cupcakes for all!

      Viva MFA and long live DB the DB!!!
      Quick question here as I don’t know the etiquette. When you join 1/2 way through the season, or just for playoffs - how much do you pay? Do you pay at all? Are you covered by existing players?

        Lots of variables. What kind of car did you drive up in? Will your kid help us win playoff games? How prolific are your baking skills?

          They probably pay based on the skill of the kid and the need of that particular squad. There is no additional "cost" to MFA to bring on additional kids. So additional kids is simply added revenue.

          The investment made by parents in the club is much greater than the investment the club makes in the player. The number of kids outside the club at tryouts is fairly low so they take everyone back who is already there. Charge them full price. They assume during the year other players may come and sign them up too for little to zero fees.

          So why is your investment greater than the club's in your child? Because you are taking the greater risk that they will develop them (with 2 practices a week). You also expect some level of playing time, although everyone says playing time is not guaranteed in some sense it should be. If you made a team in tryouts you should have been thoroughly assessed and placed on an appropriate squad.

          So the club holds most of the power because after you made the greater investment in them, if you are unsatisfied at MF, your choices to leave are limited by ECNL rules and the club's unwillingness to let you go somewhere else.

            Does the girls team only train up North? I thought they also trained in the Mercer County area?

              They do but that’s the equivalent of PDA Shore to PDA North, inferior program...that gets no respect even within its own organization

                Back in the day the ECNL was down there too or at least half the time. Not sure why its only up North now.

                  Don’t think Shore ever had ECNL...they usually send their best kids northbound

                    I dont hear much from the gentleman that fills up the generators on this blog anymore. Hope he's ok. Has anyone seen or hear from him lately?

                      So there is something called Matchfit Shore now? I don't believe it. The ECNL did practice in Mercer years ago but DB and JR didn't want to make that drive anymore.

                          Against the worst club in all of ECNL FC Delco. Lets not get crazy and start popping the champagne Jill Ellis.

                              So, split games in 2 weeks? Or will they challenge Larry’s group?
