[quote=Anonymous]Michael Lewis explains a bit of it in his book Playing to Win. It’s just capitalism. People want the service, so they pay for it. Even bad teams can make money as long as people keep signing up their kids. A related question is why does every youth sport now run year round? Because it’s hard for an organization to make money off a seasonal sport. He talks about how girls’ volleyball is a particular overachiever when it comes to making money from tournaments. https://www.amazon.com/Playing-to-Win/dp/B08DL7ZJDX[/quote]
