Well it's interesting. This year for $1,300 a U-14 CESA player played in premier league and in 16 ECNL games. The stated fee for SC Utd on their website for U-14 Elite is $1,380, plus $175 for uniform. I'm assuming they will play in the state-wide league and premier league and pay extra to go to some tournaments.

Does that mean that everyone in SC Utd should expect to committ to IU, UNC, MD, Notre Dame, UCONN, etc? I'll bet a little research will show that SC Utd Mt. Pleasant has similar fees as does Charlotte, Atlanta clubs, CASL, etc. That's a lot of people expecting a lot of commitments for the same money
