The Fields Are NOT Free
The fields are not free. Neither are league fees, insurance, equipment, referees, or everything else that keeps a soccer club going. Too often, adult players act like soccer should cost them nothing, even though someone has always paid. If we want the game to grow locally, everyone has to do their part.

As the Spring 2026 season comes to a close, we want to thank every player, family, coach, volunteer, and supporter who has helped make Summit Valley United and Summit Valley United Academy what they are today.

The “Pay-to-Play” Problem in U.S. Soccer
The “pay-to-play” model in U.S. soccer continues to limit opportunity for players based on cost rather than ability. While many clubs rely on player dues to operate, it doesn’t have to stay this way. At Summit Valley United, we are working toward a different model, one that reduces financial barriers and creates real pathways for players to develop, compete, and be seen.

Summit Valley United is growing faster than ever — from our beginnings as Berryville FC to fielding two adult teams and launching a full youth academy. With players traveling from across Northern Virginia, the Shenandoah Valley, and West Virginia, we’re building something real. This year, we’re inviting local businesses and community partners to help us take the next step and support a club that represents our region with pride and purpose.
