I think you need to add in travel costs when looking at expense.  That is where the real $$$ accrues.

Some tournaments are close by so you can drive back and forth each day; however, many/most tournaments are much further away so you will either drive and spend the night (plus food), or you will fly/train there, rent a car and then also have lodging/food expenses.  Those costs are not apparent but they rack up rapidly.  Then you add in the cost of the contributions for the team snacks at each tournament, sometimes having to pay for parking, and it is a death by a thousand cuts in addition to the bigger expenses you've already incurred.

We don't break out club costs by kid but I would guesstimate from a quick glance right now at our financial software that we spend at least $10k per kid per club sport per year, including the club fees estimated by the PP above.[/quote]

My numbers include $500 for travel.

Cost was $1500 for middle school, $2500 for HS.

What are club costs now per year.

$10K sounds like hockey

Tournaments were Baltimore , Navy, Delaware, Philly and NJ. So 2 local, 2 travel.

We usually only did 1 night in a hotel per tournament. I did not count food and gas.

You can get suck into the trip to Denver. We never did.[/quote]
