In So Cal most fee structures are start up fees (uniforms) and monthly. And you wonder why players change teams so often. Surprised that orgs. don't go to a more committed structure.
Totally agree, but unfortunately, the softball world is the wild wild west. It is what it is.
Girls Club Volleyball is one year contracts, if you break it, you're blackballed. There's no way that softball could work like that, IMO the parents have been given too much power and they're not giving it back.
