FUNDRAISING OPPORTUNITIES
Fundraising efforts are already underway! Our Scholarship Board has fundraisers going year round. Players will be able to partake in fundraising to cut down, or eliminate cost of entry. We also have additional scholarships available for those in need. Players/parents will be responsible for their own travel/accommodations during tournaments.
Every athlete will have the opportunity to fundraise ALL registration fees. Costs below include all tournament entry fees. Last year we AVERAGED $925 raised per player (with many well above that amount) and anticipate more this year.
