One of the things I asked about 50-60 youth coaches at the Pop Warner and AYF National championships was about their biggest hurdles to get to Florida. The answer I got that was almost always in the top 3 was money. It costs a bundle to keep a program going and a TON to get flights to Orlando, Hotel, meals etc etc
Ive taken teams to Florida and COMPLETELY understand the problem cost me nearly $50 for 2 teams.
What has worked for you all?
Talk about how much you raised in how short a time period BOTH the winners and the bombs.
Weve done about everything- and in some demographics, some fundraisers work better than others, What we do where I live now is 100% different than what we did when I coached in the hood. What I always looked for was what was going to raise us the most amount of money in the shortest time period with the fewest hassles and least amount of risk. Some worked pretty well, some really stunk. Talk about both and the product/companies that you used.
We did:
Raffles
Candy bar sales ( they melted on pallet in our unairconditioned warehouse)
Sunglass sales
Team Apparrel
Discount Cards
Ticket Books
Krispy Kreme discount coupons
Cheesecakes- see same problem as Candy Bars
Golf Tournament
