| Q. | What are the recurrent costs of playing basketball with Strathmore Unicorns? |
| A. |
All Stadiums charge a “door charge” for each person who enters the stadium, whether they are a player or a spectator. Within the Broadmeadows association, that door charge currently stands at $2.50. Please note, however, that if you are going to attend games at more than one venue, you can get a pass-out stamp to show you’ve paid at one venue that gets you access to the other venues. You only need to pay one door charge, per day of competition. In addition to that, each team needs to pay for a team-sheet fee, which your team manager will pay. However, to allow them to pay this team sheet fee, they will collect money from the player’s parents. This normally works out to about $10 per week, depending on team size, and many teams prefer to pay in advance. |
