Income
20 players @ $1200 each $24,000
Expenses
4 Tournaments at $1000 $4,000
Jerseys @ $75 each (*20) $1,500
Equipment @ $300 each $6,000
Swag @ $100 each $2,000
Coaches (2 @ $2K) $4,000
Profit $9,500
Obviously these are general numbers, but I think the clubs could afford to use the try-out fee as a deposit.
If you think that paid coaches are receiving $2,000 for an entire seasonal year, you are woefully mistaken.
Second, unless you are playing on the street in front of your home, someone is paying for permits and field time.
BOTC could go on-and-on with expenses that you have missed in this equation however this does go to demonstrate just how uninformed some parents are when it comes to having a grip on the underlying costs of operating a club.
