How many parents will then pay $200 for a clinic or two? probably half of them, that's another $250,000 if half of the kids go to one clinic! and you've barely scratched the surface, we're talking big money here, it's a million dollar plus enterprise per year
To balance the discussion, it is not 100 kids * 25 teams. According to reports, it is 100 young ladies per age group for 2013-2020 which is 100 players * 8 age groups = 800 players. At the last count, there were actually 600 players in the Yellow Jackets program. You can do your arithmetic based on those numbers.
