I'd say this discussion forum goes beyond just discussing the "game" of girls fastpitch softball. Take a look through the archives and active threads to see all of the various topics. This forum seems, to me, to be dedicated to the world of fastpitch softball, mostly travel, and all that goes with it. For now, the current topic was fees for simply trying out for an organization.The forum is for General Discussions about the Game of Girls Fastpitch Softball. Not to attack any organization or coach etc. simply because you do not agree with a fee. The question was asked why is the fee charged. The answer was given. That should have been the end of it, however calling someone smug and arrogant really? I have seen several charge fees for tryouts.
I guess any organization has the right to charge whatever they feel they are entitled. To me and apparently others as well, it appears to be just a way to make money and offset the cost of fees for those players who make the cut, at the expense of those who don't.
My thought is it will only discourage players from coming out but I've been wrong before, and I'm sure it won't be the last time.
