Registration fees start at $100. Then, there is an additional base fee set every year which includes the cost of administration, MYSA and Fields-For-Duluth fees, coach's compensation, practice rental, line items for team equipment, and a donation toward player assistance fees. Based on the previous years fundraising success (tournament revenue, Gitch Gear sales, concessions, etc.), there is a club credit applied to the base fee too. A detailed breakdown is made available to current members.
Not included in the base fee would be uniforms - sold through Eurosport, extra tournament fees and the related costs (hotels, gas, food), and/or extra practice time not covered by the base fee. Many players buy warm-up jackets, pants, and other Gitch Gear like sweatshirts, t-shirts, hats, and other non-required items. Several teams may rent buses to go to away league games and incur the additional costs associated with that.
Some teams choose to fund-raise on their own to cover portions of the extra cost, but not all. We leave decisions about fundraising and extra costs up to each individual team.
