ALL PLAYERS SHOULD:
DROP OFF at LSP: Families should enter the Park & Ride and drop their player(s) at gate adjacent to LSP. Parents can then park in the Park & Ride lot for their TA session. Vehicle traffic and parking inside LSP will be difficult and congested, so TA exit/entrance via the LSP lot is not recommended.
DROP OFF at Bolen #21: Parking at this location is very limited; parents are encouraged to arrive early and use the parking lots at Field #16 and #17 if possible. For more information, consult our Bolen Park Field map.
Please note the start and end times for each age group. TA is a busy program and will require patience from everyone to ensure smooth entry to/exit from the fields.

TRAVEL FEES
About Travel Fees
Fees for 2025/26 can be found
here!
Loudoun Soccer’s Travel fees cover your player's costs for a full seasonal year, without additional "hidden" fees for off-season or other programs. Fees for professionally-coached teams incorporate seasonal training, off-season training, Training Academy (where applicable), and tournament coaching fees. Please use caution when comparing Loudoun’s fees to other Travel programs,' as those clubs can charge additional incremental fees unexpectedly throughout the year.
Travel fees are divided into Club fees and Team fees. Costs vary based on age group and level. The player’s year-long financial commitment is for June-May each seasonal year.
*Players who join a team after the start of the year should contact kate.murphy@loudounsoccer.com with fee-related questions.*
Club Fees:
Loudoun Soccer Club fees cover items related to the coaching and administrative management of the team. Consult our Inclusions page for an outline of what Club fees include.
Team Fees:
Each team maintains a bank account and collects expenses directly from the families to cover team-based items such as tournament registration fees, coach travel, and additional training sessions not covered by Club fees. Families receive a team budget and payment schedule from the Team Treasurer at the beginning of the seasonal year for planning purposes. Individual team fees vary according to the age and level of team.
Supplemental Program Fees:
In addition to programs and expenses included in their Club fees, some teams may elect to add additional off-season training sessions, attend extra tournaments, or compete in Region I Eastern Regional League.
Uniform Fees:
Families pay uniform costs directly to our designated vendor. All players are required to purchase a the Loudoun Soccer uniform kit. Estimated cost for a complete kit is $250-$350; an abbreviated package is available for high school seniors, who will age out this year.
*Please note 2024/25 is the final year of our two-year uniform cycle.
