Club Costs & Registration Information

MSUSC operates as a nonprofit, volunteer-run soccer club. All board members, managers, and coaches donate their time, allowing player fees to go directly toward program expenses and creating opportunities for local athletes.

Our goal is simple: keep soccer affordable while providing quality training and competitive opportunities.

What Registration Fees Typically Cover

Player registration fees may include:

  • League registration fees (Afrim’s and CDYSL leagues)

  • Insurance and player registration costs

  • Indoor facility rentals (winter training)

  • Outdoor field rentals and maintenance

  • Referee fees for league games

  • Team equipment (balls, cones, training gear, first aid supplies, etc.)

  • Administrative and operating expenses

  • Coach education

  • Website, registration platform, and communication costs

Expenses Typically NOT Included

  • Uniform kits (if new uniforms are required)

  • Tournaments - Tournament fees are shared equally among participating players. For example, if tournament registration costs $500 and a team has 12 players, each family would contribute about $42 toward registration

  • Merch

  • Personal equipment (cleats, shin guards, bags, water bottles)

  • Travel expenses requiring overnight stays

  • Optional additional camps or private training

  • Team-specific activities outside club registration

Payment Plan and Schedule

Player fees may be divided into multiple payments throughout the year rather than requiring one full payment upfront.

A typical payment schedule may look like:

  • Initial Deposit (Summer): Confirms roster acceptance and helps cover league registration, insurance, and administrative costs

  • Fall Payment: Covers initial winter registration fees and facility rentals

  • Winter Payment: Continues to cover winter registration fees and facility rentals

  • Winter Payment 2: Continues to cover winter registration fees and facility rentals

  • Winter Payment 3: Continues to cover winter registration fees and facility rentals

  • Spring Payment: Covers our spring league fees, facility rentals, field paint, referee fees

Scholarships

Families needing additional flexibility are encouraged to reach out confidentially. Payment plans may be available, and our goal is to work with families whenever possible to ensure players have the opportunity to participate.

We believe finances should never be the sole reason a player is unable to play.
