2023 CLUB FEES COST COMPARISON
Virginia Elite has always been the only "all-inclusive" travel club in the region. The price you see (club fees + travel package) is the total price you pay. No add-on costs for athlete travel. No add-on costs for fees or uniforms. Ever.
We understand various club pricing approaches can be confusing, which is why we just have one final price. When comparing our costs to other clubs, consider the following:
- Some clubs may only post fees for part of the season. “Post-season” coaching and tournament fees may be add-ons.
- Some clubs may post a price that excludes athlete travel. Families may be responsible for these add-on costs.
- Some clubs may include some costs, but not all, for athlete travel. For example, hotel costs may be included, but air travel may be excluded.
- Some clubs may exclude uniform costs
