Comparing CFC tournament with LO Cup

Originally posted by Unregistered View Post

My understanding is you pay $5 for the whole weekend. Again same ten cars you are at $50 +$495 registration fee instead of $750(?). I have also heard CFC is working on pulling in as many premier teams as they can. It was kind of a late addition for premier teams, but they want you, if you want to go.

At several events in the past we have paid $5/day not for the whole weekend in Salem. Many of the events at Crossfire charge $5/day or $12/weekend- you also pay to park at events in Tukwila.

My understanding is this years Oswego Cup is $600? The parking fee is being refunded back to the teams. If the entry fee is actually $600 (couldn't find it on their website) then it's about $50 more than CFC if you add the parking based on 10 cars listed above.

As far as competitiveness, CFC's tournament has 12 teams listed for the "HS Girls Gold and Silver division" combined- 3 of them CFC host teams (there are no U15/U16/U19 groups and divisions as at Oswego Cup).

I can't vouch for the competitiveness of all the teams, but comparing the same U15-U19 HS group" at LO Cup I count roughly 70 teams from Oregon, Wash, Cal, Idaho, and Alaska. Not too bad considering other tournaments going on in California that weekend also.

The LO tournament was originally $750 and was to include parking. Now there are no parking costs. So they are refunding $75 ????? So this tournament is now $675. Just a year ago, the tournament was $550 and you had to pay parking separately. So, in one year, LO thinks their tournament is now $125 better?

Disappointed

C'mon LO. You charge the highest entry fee in OR for a tournament. The least you can do is get the scores updated in a timely manner on the website....and correct as I know you have some errors in come you do have posted. I can think of many other local tourneys who charge far less and are able to accomplish this task. But you already have our money, so what do you care?
