[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top of the Bay and STEPS also don't pay field marshalls to sit at the table. Guess those tournaments are ghetto too.[/quote]

Yes, they suck too. I did the math once and depending on the tournament - they take in almost $1.0M for the multi site ones. [/quote]

You guys are ridiculous. I am not in the tourney or club lax business, but I appreciate those who do run them. The notion that this is some massive "money grab" or "cash machine" for organizers is patently absurd.  Say they did take in almost $1M gross, what was the cost to operate it?  To rent the facilities, to hire the staff, referees ($80 per game each) to pay for local LE overtime, extra parking facilities, and on and on.  If you think some nefarious tourney organizers are making a killing and intentionally providing sub-par services for summer lacrosse tournaments, you are kidding yourself. Please, please start your own lax business if you can do better for less.  New entrants are welcome.  Otherwise give it a rest.

And thanks to the coaches and trainers, who do this stuff for peanuts, and care about our kids.[/quote]
