Did a 3 team scrimmage festival yesterday. Each team got to play the other two in 50 minute games....The total cost was $40 each team to pay for referees...The host team was gracious enough not to charge for field rental...Why don't teams scrimmage each other more often instead of paying $800 for a tournament and then playing each other anyways in that tournament? Makes no sense to me....

That would be like having sales meetings instead of actually calling on customers for sales. Just doesn't work that way boss! You have to play the games and all levels to understand not only the physical part of the games, but as importantly, the mental part of the game. Handling pressure is huge in any sport, and even in sales!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI think 3-4 tournaments a year should be it....I know teams that do 10-12 tournaments, which I believe is overkill and very costly for parents....if most parents say no, guess what, the team isn't going anywhere....
