Hosting a benefit / fundraising tournament - 09/22/17 04:09 PM
Ok, I found a bought a decent equalizer scale. Long story short, me and my family hosts an orphan from Ukraine two times a year. We felt led a couple of years ago to act on this and we committed to it knowing that the financial part of it is the most challenging for us (im a teacher and coach and my wife stays at home with our kids). My thought was to start hosting a somewhat informal tournament once or twice a year as one of our fundraisers.
My question is on tournaments like this, after deciding on a lake and a date (that hopefully doesnt conflict with other tournaments, especially the big ones)...Whats a wise payout amount and payout percentage of contestants?
I was thinking pay back 40% and pay the top 30%. Whats a normal/fair entry amount for a team?
Just want some feedback and would love to make this an annual thing...even if its kinda small.
