I'll refer to my two previous posts for this one:
Cost seams to be what a lot of the chatter is saying is the prohibitive factor wrt USSDA. Washington's Crossfire is charging it's players $2,500 for the season (all inclusive and their travel is farther than BFA's). I estimated that ODP + Select at $1,600 and when you add in tournaments to get a similar number of games and your up to the 2.5K cost of USSDA. A decent sponsorship drive will reduce the costs further and an initiative like the USSDA is sure to draw sponsors. Not to mention that the quality of the games is across the board higher with USSDA. Just a thought on the topic.


Soccer is simple, but it is difficult to play simple.
