While I believe there should be a fee for tryouts (field costs, coaches time, not to mention offsetting the overall cost of the program...after all club lacrosse is a business)...I do think that a $125 fee is eggregious. In Maryland most fees run $25-$50 (Crabs doesn't charge for U13 or U15)...anything more and those running the clubs are looking to line their pockets. Worse is when a team charges for tryouts, has 50-100 players show up and in reality already pre-picked many players...Breakers in Baltimore is notorious for this..transparency is key...love them or hate them but the Crab program has the most transparency at the club level
Why would anyone hate the Crabs? Envy is probably more like it.
