Its a money grab, but most all these things are. That being said, the instruction is great. The talent is strong but as with everything, some kids didn't belong. If you have the extra income, go for it.
The instruction was ok but not very well organized. 20 minutes blocks with about 5-8 minutes of instruction and then actual hands on training (most were the same drills and instruction club coaches teach) Players had to bully their way into the drill or the they would miss out. The schedule was less than ideal with hours of downtime. Playing time was uneven, teamwork was not stressed, ball hogs everywhere, and the inside mezzanine was crowded when trying to watch games. Other than that, it was great!

Think one thing that complicated matters for coaches and girls playing midi, in particular, is that it seemed like a good handful of players got in as defenders and then somehow ended up playing midfield which took away from minutes that registered midfielders expected to get. On the other hand, if you were a true defender, you probably never had to leave the field.
