Everyone who attends a tournament is supposed to pay for that event. Often those events are on the same weekend as a mini camp so families are already invested in the travel part of the equation.

Are there kids who barely see the field? Sure, but that's no different than any team that wants to win. When the going gets tough, the top players are in the game.

I suspect that guest players don't pay the tournament fee so yes, current players are likely subsidizing them. And it wouldn't surprise me if paying players are also subsidizing the kids who maybe can't afford the expense.
