We're paying $2500 for this year (fall & spring) for 12U. That includes 14 tournaments (four in the fall), two hours a week on a municipal field with lights through October, two indoor team practices a week through the fall and winter, plus additional strength and conditioning sessions once per week and nightly optional defensive practices that are position-specific. Uniforms are not included, but at $150 for two full uniforms including the helmet and bag, I don't think they're making much money off of that.
The main thing that we're paying for is a professional head coach for the team. We've very fortunate to have a coach who has years of experience coaching softball at the D1 level. And best of all, she's a she. Head coach is a woman and her assistants are current and recent college players. DD is thrilled to be in an all-female dugout for the first time in her softball career, worth the price of admission.
