FEES
Our goal is to keep fees at an affordable rate so that we can maximize the number of players who are able to participate in MUFC. In an effort to keep our fees low, our expenses are also kept to a minimum while maintaining quality coaching, facilities and equipment. All fees are spread evenly throughout the club with top priorities addressed first.
Once-per-season fees
$60 club registration fee: provides insurance and registration to the state for each soccer season
Monthly fees
$80 club fee: provides coaching payments for each month as well as coaching education to improve the quality of our coaching staff; it also pays for field maintenance and new equipment
Team fees: this payment varies based on the number of players on the team as well as which league and tournaments the team plays in, and this fee is split evenly amongst all players on the team
Uniform fees
$125 uniform fee: all players are responsible for purchasing their own uniforms through our store on soccer.com. These uniforms will not change frequently, so this fee is not paid each season.
Discounts and financial aid
Practice-player discount: monthly fees are cut in half to $40 a month. Practice-players will participate in all practices, possibly in scrimmages, but will not play in matches. Each team can decide to roles of a practice-player, but the main objective is to improve the fundamentals of soccer at a reduced fee.
Sibling discount: monthly fees are reduced $10 for each sibling associated with McMinn United FC's competitive teams. For example, if the older sibling is on our 2005-2006 boys team and the younger sibling is on our 2010-2011 boys team, the monthly fees for each player becomes $70 rather than $80. With three siblings, monthly fees would be $60 per player and so on.
- The sibling discount does not include siblings in the academy
Financial aid: thanks to our generous sponsors, our club is able to assist families in need with reduced monthly payments. These "scholarships" are a means to allow more players to be involved with the sport that we love. Financial aid is decided on by our board members, and they are distributed based on each family's needs.
