I don't follow you. Why would any player of non Christian faith have to deal with FCA? FCA, like all of the clubs, are private enterprises. It isn't like this is happening at your local public school. If you'd sell your soul to the devil for your kid to play with the best despite him having to "deal with the uncomfortable feeling of all the extra," then that is on you.

I hold the FCA team at my son's age group in very low regard, but I'm also Catholic and don't see the attack on the concept of a Christian based team as legitimate, particularly given your thought process. That being said, I agree with sentiment that FCA (coaches and players) often conduct themselves in a manner contrary to their mission and values.
