[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it's getting worse. Stay-to-play is just another way for clubs to shift costs to families. Big clubs could unite and object to stay-to-play requirements that don't make sense, but there is no incentive for them to object, since the costs are paid by the families. Same thing for rising uniform costs, rising tournament fees, etc. Tournaments are among the biggest waste in the landscape of waste that is travel soccer. If they want extra matches, top U10-U12 teams should do two leagues per season and do many fewer tournaments. Leagues, in general: are less expensive than a single tournament, require less travel, feature longer matches (especially because referees add more injury time to league matches), and are more likely to have the regular coach available and focused.
