Surf- For Profit - Finances

[Guest]

I think they will be next when they finish with LFCIAWA. They have lots of loan issues and bad checks.

Behind on payments for practice fields big time!

Mostly when we go to robinswood its the Instagram coaches poaching on part of the field. I assume they don't pay. We're does surf Bellevue normally train? See EFC Bellevue sometimes and club called BvD recently (were are they from?)

How can you see anything on the over grown fields you practice on?

BVD or BVB?

Coaches don't pay no unless they have that kind of cash to reserve the space which they don't.

WWS practices at Robinswood, Marymoor and Bellevue middle schools.

Surf teams don't have a treasurer - its all handled by the finance department of the club - so there's no transparency into where the team fees go. Its charged at the time you pay registration, not something that is done as a collection by the team parents like it is in other non profit and community clubs.
If they are indeed charging $380 on top of the normal team fee to go to the Empire Cup in Spokane...then I would agree there's something else going on.
Maybe it subsidizes the cost of the Elite A team going to Florida and San Diego perhaps?

Finance department?

Local tournaments like crossfire challenge and rush cup are included in team fees. Travel tournaments are extra, not hard to understand. Every club does this, it’s not a profit or non profit thing. If it’s too much for you just don’t go it’s not a big deal. Also It looks like Surf will organize 2 team dinners so it’s less of a hassle for parents.

When isnt it a hassle but clubs shouldnt do that to parents

Sad that a club profits off misogyny.

I understand that Surf is for profit, but I’m appalled and surprised by the extra costs for everything. For example, $380 per player for the Empire Cup. Other clubs I’ve been at divide the fees evenly by the players attending, but Surf is charging each player $380 across the 21 teams going amounting to almost $100,000. This covers the meals but not transportation or hotel for the players. Then you have the Surf Cup where they are charging $550 per player going across all the teams. When asked Stacy Reeves says, “these are the fees. I’ve been doing this a long time.” Anyone have insight on these high fees? Or are we just set to pay a premium to play at Surf?

There are federal and local laws to prevent discrimination against women.

Treat women equally and your finances will be in the black.

Seems they should focus more on their culture and creating a welcoming environment that doesn't put women in the kitchen barefoot than worrying about finances. How big of a house does Adam and his wife need?
