What gets me is people buy into these "promises" organizations sell them? We have one here that is exploding with teams popping up everywhere. No real history and only one team the guy had coached has ever had real success. No idea why anyone would want to pay him $1500 to play for the summer. Now he probably has 10-15 teams spread over two states so I am sure the majority of people can see why he is expanding so much. Even at ten teams with the average roster size being 12 he would collect $180,000. Basically the fees of 4 or maybe 5 kids on each team would cover tourney entries and uniforms. That's still over $100G going to the org ran buy one person.
Our team is in a large org that will not expand and only allows one team per birth year. Not all of our teams have it this good but we pay for uniforms and travel only. Our two fundraisers cover everything else. This summer we had close to $10,000 in entry fees and not a single parent put a dime toward that.
