Question:
How much does it cost to play for Shreveport United?
>Answer:
Typically, the costs run approximately $500.00 for the year coaching fees, and CABOSA registration and LSA fees. Each player is responsible for travel cost and uniforms. Each team, however, operates its own budget and some teams opt to travel and pay more, while other teams opt to participate in fundraisers in order to lower the cost. Each team has the opportunity to make between $500.00 and $2,000.00 per year by selling ads for the Red River Classic Tournament. This money directly reduces team fees for uniforms or coach's travel expense. Each team may contact the Executive Director, Kim Ates to assist in fundraising ideas and setting the fundraiser up.
