Where $95 goes.
And what it doesn't cover.
A recreational season costs the club about $260 per registration and the fee is $95. Sponsors, the concession stand and gifts pay the difference. Here is the whole year, the numbers with their method, and the filings.
The numbers
Unique players registered in spring or fall 2025–26, counted once even if they played both seasons (1,760 registrations in all).
193 players received full aid, half aid or a payment plan; $38,000 of fees waived. Nobody who asked was refused. No proof of income is asked for.
Cleared means all five steps done: application, background check, abuse-prevention training, concussion course, orientation. Counted from the club's roster on 15 September; the five waiting cannot coach until cleared.
Total expenses $458,000 divided by 1,760 registrations. The recreational fee of $95 covers about a third; sponsors, the concession stand and gifts cover the rest.
Field closures posted by 2 p.m. on weekdays or 7 a.m. on Saturdays, out of 41 closure days last year. The three late ones were storms that arrived after the call.
Every number on this site comes with the sentence that says how it was counted. No method, no number.
The year
Fees cover 71% of what the club spends. The recreational fee of $95 is about a third of the $260 each registration costs; the travel fee of $385 is close to its cost. Nothing is spent on travel to games: parents drive. The board is nine volunteers, elected every November; the one paid person is the administrator.
Three 990s, the review, the letter
The three most recent Form 990s are listed by themselves; older years drop off. A youth league this size files a Form 990 and is not required to have an audit; the club has a review instead, and says so. Every document is a labelled sample: the club is invented, and so are the figures.
One season, one player
$95 is a recreational season for one player; the club gives about 190 of them away each year. Monthly gifts pay for aid before the season starts, when the registrar is saying yes to families.
$95 covers one player's recreational season.
