[quote=Anonymous]“The point I tried to make with football costs was not whether the money was poorly spent or well spent. Rather, the previous poster implied that hockey costs money so poor kids couldn't play. My point is that all sports costs money and none of them are "free".” -Yes that is correct. No sport is free. However a varsity sport costs at most a participation or “ECA” fee of about twenty-thirty dollars to participate. While the minimum each player for Ice Hockey pays out of pocket is 800 or 900 dollars practicing only once a week. The schools that practice multiple times a week sometimes reach 1200 or more per player. -=-=- So the school would be picking up the cost of $800 to $900 per player per week? If the team only practices once a week, it seems more like a club than a varsity sport. [/quote]
