[quote=Anonymous]This is really club dependent. If you have a budget and need a club within your budget that’s something you should consider from the get-go. If you’re starting out as a U12 player it’s going to cost less than if you are a U16 player. Not only will training costs likely increase but the tournaments you go to will drastically increase your annual costs (hotels, flights, food).

Some clubs charge a flat free for the year that includes all training and all tournament fees. Your child may not go to all the tournaments, but you are still paying a fee towards those tournaments. Some clubs charge a training fee and then a per tournament fee and you only pay for the tournaments you attend. Local tournaments are cheap and may cost $75. Some of the larger tournaments however may cost $3-400 and you also then have to factor in your travel expenses.

A club that charges a flat fee, can cost less in the end than a club that charges for training and tournaments. It comes down to how many tournaments your child goes to.  Some clubs give you the option to say which tournaments you’re willing to attend and others don’t - the expectation is you go to what you’re told and you don’t know what that will be when you’re signing up in the summer for the next year.

Some clubs are for-profit and some are not for profit. [/quote]
