We have laid the groundwork to start a football group here and it ruffled the feathers of
the athletic boosters. I would advise you don't have to deal with that.

The Athletic Boosters are for all sports.

I'm going into my second year at a small school and looking at doing the same. My reason is simple: when I called to the booster club president to introduce myself his response was "yeah, what do you want?" - and he wasn't asking about what he could do for us. We didn't see any contribution from them last year.
What we're looking at doing is fairly simple. I've talked to a few parents who are willing to spear head some fundraising for us. I'm going to get them a list of things that would help the program and a list of fundraising ideas. We'll see what happens from there.

at my old high school, they had a "Touchdown Club" that went like this:
The Head Coach appointed a Club President who would serve as long as he wanted which through 4-5 years year term (usually it was a freshmen's parent who the HC already knew) and that Club president would be in charge selecting a VP
Each member paid yearly dues (20-30 dont remember exactly but first time members recieved a hat or sweatshirt)
Every Monday Night, at a local restuarent, they made a deal that all beverages went right to the restuarent and 5% of the food sales went to the Club. Also, they had 50/50 raffle every meeting
Sometimes there was raffles as well
Also the Head Coach and the DC would review the game film from the previous week and give a sneak preview on the next oppoenent
----------------------------------------------------------------
the benefits of this: the Touchdown Club was primarily in charge of putting together the bigger fundraisers for the program such as Final Four Party, Superbowl Party, Golf Outings, etc. plus it was a 100% seperate account for football

We had one that was moms and dads that took care of feeding the team on away games, handling the fundraiser and tshirt sales and organizing all the other stuff. Great if you have the right people who want to be involoved

general booster clubs dont support as well in most cases, however they also dont tend to meddle as much that is also in most cases.
