Re: Are 8 play regional reasonable?

Lets say I'm Coaching a youth sportsball team.

I have the opportunity to choose between two tournaments on the same weekend.

Option 1: $5000 Registration Fee. My sportsball team gets to see the field for 8 games. The Kids are excited because there will be 60 teams from the state at this event, but only 8 plays?

Option 2: $5000 Registration Fee. My sportsball team gets on the field 12(!!!) times for the weekend! My kids are so excited, but there were only 30 other teams at this tournament. BUT, the team also received an invitation to compete in sportsball the next weekend, for no extra charge, for another 12 matches, against 30 teams AGAIN!


So.... Which do you choose?
