Potential changes.....
1-lower the entry fees by $50 instead of raising them
2-Scrap the hotel requirement, you could probably pick up a few teams by advertising that you can pick your own hotel instead of going through some room booker who sends a kickback to the club. It might actually get the local hotels booked up instead of sending the teams to stay in north charleston hotels
3-Offer incentives to clubs to bring their entire club instead of just a few teams. Cesa & CU only brought a few teams. Bring 9 and the 10 is free, 25 bucks off of 4, 50 off of 6 etc.
4-Bring in some older refs from other areas or states. I have seen some of our better older refs at other tournaments in other states
I doubt MP will implement any of these and will probably just moan and groan about the rec department but we will see.
Don't think some of the better tournaments have suffered, CU or CESA tournaments seem to be doing about the same.
Will be interesting to see how the turnout for the James Island tournament is this year.
