[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t see how it’s a scam. At least in our local travel softball group, no one is making any money and everyone is a volunteer. All the money we pay goes directly towards expenses. Playing travel vs rec is the only way to weed out brand new or non-serious players, especially once you hit 11/12 or so. Also “travel” is a misnomer. We don’t travel - plenty of local tournaments and double-headers so we don’t need to. So how is it a scam? We’d be happy playing in a select house/all-star league against other similar teams but those don’t exist in our area. [/quote] Most travel sports have some kind of governing body that employs a lot of adults. Who runs tryouts, secures fields, sets up teams administratively, hires coaches, etc. If your entire league is run by volunteers I assume you pay nothing to participate? [/quote]
