Does anyone build a fundraising requirement into their team rules? If so, how much? How do you hold them accountable to raise X?

I have thought about making some bare bones minimum required for lettering. We sell discount cards. We want them to sell 20. I really think anybody with any effort at all could move five without trying hard.
Currently we just reward the kids who sell all 20 or more. Which is a growing number.

We do discount cards as well. When we hand out the cards, every player gets 20; we let them know quite clearly that we expect them to sell 20. The guy who runs this sale for us rewards kids who hit certain quotas(such as selling 30+). We also nag, badger, pester our kids every day of the sale to get out and sell 20 cards. When the kids turn in their unsold cards/money, they hand in the money/cards to one of us coaches.

Our players want the best uniform and spirit pack stuff, so the total for EVERYTHING comes out to $180. That includes one of their game jerseys that they will keep. So we make our own discount cards which cost about .25 to make each. We give the kids the option of paying $200 for their spirit pack, or selling (20) $10 cards. It is a requirement that they have their fundraising done before they will get their pads checked out. I also build it into our pride points system and let them know that for every card they sell above 20 minimum earns them extra points. In the summer, we take all the "extra" cards we have left over, and we scour the neighborhood to sell off the rest.
