Re: Are 8 play regional reasonable?

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?
I'm new at this, but I don't think my team has a choice. We only seem to have option 1 so I think your analogy is off a bit.
