Will the 2020's play on age or will they play up? What ages do other areas start at?
I guess $50,000 is worth it if you get 1 year worth of full ride athletic scholarship monies, but that is a pretty big lottery ticket
First, the tournament plans for the bulk of the teams are still not set. Therefore, worrying about which tournaments will be on the docket is premature. However, this is not why we are writing.
Starting out as parents of a U/10 player, please stay well clear of the college scholarship debate. Those discussions are at least five or six years away (for 2020/2021 students) and the competition for even a 0.25 first year athletic scholarship will be intense. Your student-athlete will let you know their passion level for the game - or any game - along the way.
Look at the early investment of maybe $1000.00 as helping your child explore the game in a structured, educational environment. One year from now, re-evaluate whether your expectations were met and whether your child would like to continue for another year.
