It’s a great business model. It just [Censored] for local kids/parents.
-Offer a struggling rec/club team admin some money to join the “family.”
-Promise to keep the team together.
-Take over the team. Advertise new green/black logo.
-Split up team how it best serves the company. Install new, overwhelmingly mediocre coaches.
-Charge parents $2800+ for the same A-level lax they were getting a year before for $800.
Then kids CAN’T leave because they no longer have a local cheap rec/club option to play lacrosse at and still aren’t good enough to make a good club team.
So sure. They are “bridging the gap” between rec and club alright. By letting hopeful and naive parents pay club prices for rec lax. |
