Got this from a 13u team today. Others refuse to show their budget sheet. Look about right to me, the math is too simple. I guess that extra $1700 per player is the profit or embroidery cost. I really do have the wrong job.
TEAM EXPENSES Budget Number of Players 12 Fees Field Usage e 1000 Subtotal - Fees 1,000 Other Team Expenses (approximate expenses) Diamond Kast and Game Changer e 100 Insurance e 120 3 Uniform Tops @ $27 each e 972 Belt @ $8 each e 96 2 Pair of Socks @ $8 each e 96 Pullovers @ $35 each e 420 2 Hats w/Embroidery @ $25 each e 600 Helmets w/Decal @ $32 each e 384 Bags w/Decal or Embroidery @ $60 e 720 Baseballs - 6 dozen e 300 Catchers Gear e 200 Coach's Fee e 6500 Umpires (Scrimmages) e 300 Training Expenses - Team Training e 0 - Winter Indoor Facilities e 0 Subtotal - Other Team Expenses 10,708 Tournaments (approximate expenses) Fall PG Tournament 1 e 395 Fall PG Tournament 2 e 395 Fall PG Tournament 3 e 395 Spring Tournament 1 e 700 Spring Tournament 2 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 3 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 4 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 5 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 6 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 7 e 700 Spring PG Tournament 8 e 700 Summer PG Tournament 1 e 700 Summer PG Tournament 2 e 750 Summer PG Tournament 3 e 750 Summer PG Tournament 4 e 750 Summer PG Tournament 5 e 750 Subtotal - Tournaments 10,485 Total Expenses 22,193 COST PER PLAYER $1,849.42

LMAO...# players 15 ?........yeah right...try closer to 22-25. You also get the Coach Speak of "15 roster with some POs" BS.......but you will find out that PO is not Pitcher "Only" but "Also" Pitches. Here is the math....9-12 true players, 2-3 true Pitchers....there's your 15 that will play...everyone else is money grab and only question is how many parents/kids will come in past the "15" to keep one team versus a split of another team.
Been in this many, many, many years.....it's not the money you should be focused on...it's the playing time....period. Baseball cost $$$....the question is whom do you pay those $$$ to and for what return ?.....again playing time for team selection is the key. If your son is not in the top 9-12 kids or top 1,2 or 3 pitcher GO SOMEWHERE ELSE....not the right fit. Do all the right things for your son to improve OUTSIDE the team (ie. go to field with him, lessons, workouts, etc) and pay/budget for those efforts. For a "team/season" selection it is 100% about playing time....that's where they get better...period....don't let anyone trying convince you otherwise...the red flag key word is "development" used by the Money Ball Coach Speak sales pitch. Bottom line....Buyer Beware.
BTW....went thru all this and learned....my son went from worst player on Rec field to now has College B-Ball scholarship....this was done thru his hard work mostly OFF the field along with being aligned with the right level team. Not going to lie...made mistakes on the way...but quick to walk on the money and find the right fit...as time went on was able to see thru the BS. If you want a metric on my son and my budget spent over the years 2/3 time/$$$ off team efforts....1/3 on....and that 1/3 for my "$ return assessment" was broken down by Innings/ABs/IP...period. |
