Fees

PA Rush has simplified how the club collects travel soccer fees for the 2024-25 season. “Club Fees” now include costs for both club and team operations. On the team side, this includes items like league fees, referee fees, and a baseline number of tournaments, which were previously collected by each team. Moving forward, “Team Fees” will only be collected as necessary, in the event that a team’s coach decides that they want to participate in items not included in the Club Fees, like video or additional tournaments. 

A full explanation of each fee type is below:

Club Fees

• USYS Membership and League fees
• Tournaments fees (allocation for 4-6 tournaments) 
• Coaching fees
• Referee & Referee Assignor fees
• USYS Player Cards & Insurance
• League Registration fees
• Administration Costs, including staff compensation and operational costs
• Facility & Field fees

Team Fees (as necessary; to be communicated by individual coaches) 

• Video & Analytics (Trace, Hudl or Veo)
• Referee Costs for Additional Games/Scrimmages
• National Championship Series and Coaches’ travel cost
• Additional Tournaments Exceeding Club Allocation
• Optional Indoor Leagues/Events
• Optional Training apps (Techne)

2024-25 Club Fees

• U8-U10 - $2,275
• U11-U12 - $2,350
• U13-U19 - $2,450 

Payment Process

Payments will be collected through GotSport during acceptance of a roster spot on a team following tryouts. Families can pay their Club Fees in full at registration or through a payment plan as follows: 

• 1st payment of $550 to accept a place on the team. Due within the 24 hour window. 
• 5 payment installments monthly from June to November. 

Any additional “Team Fees” will be invoiced through GotSport following communication from the coach. 

Practice Players

The club may offer an opportunity to be a “Practice Player” on a team with a full roster. As the name implies, Practice Players are invited to practice with the team, but they are not rostered for games or tournaments (unless asked by the coach on an as needed basis). Fees for Practice Players will be assessed as follows:

• Fall 2024 Coaching season - $400
• Spring 2025 Coaching season - $400

Non-Payment

• It is the responsibility of the player to ensure forms of payment in their account are viable and up-to-date. Lost, stolen, expired, or otherwise denied credit cards are the family’s responsibility to report and update. Failure of PA Rush to communicate an outstanding balance does not absolve the member of non-payment of fees.

• Any player who is more than 30 days behind in payment of Club Fees or additional Team Fees may be suspended from play – including all practices, games, tournaments, and events. Any player who is not currently on payments at the time of the next seasonal year’s ID/Tryout Sessions will be ineligible to participate nor will they be eligible for financial assistance.

Travel Program Refunds

The Travel program has a stringent refund policy because a player’s acceptance has the effect of denying another player an opportunity to play on a competitive team. Additionally, costs accrue to the Club for services provided to the team based on player headcount. Accordingly, PA Rush Travel Registration fees are non-refundable.

Mid-Season Roster Additions/Transfers

Fees for players added/transferred in during a season will be assessed as follows:
