which I think is just crap. Speaking of, Beavercreek led Fairborn 10-0 late first half when I left. there was however one thing good about the night. My new stadium chair is comfortable.
This was changed this year. They are now allowed to charge admission.They are not allowed to charge for the scrimmage. They are allowed to ask for a donation. I believe this is the rule
OHSAA Football RegulationsJamboree games require a donation to the OHSAA charity of a few hundred bucks. School was probably trying to cover that charge along with officials. Depends on how financially sound the school is. With diesel at $5.25 a gallon for the buses and officials costing more, a number of them will have to make it up somewhere.
Don't forget the increase in officiating fees that many schools will need to absorb.I’m hearing Winton Woods/ Moeller scrimmage will be $5. Not really surprising considering this will probably be a packed house.
Also, considering WW like some districts are cash strapped, why not try to make a few dollars.
Shoot, I'm quivering about going and watching the grand daughters cheering in Pee Wee football! I heard they are now charging starting this year.I would prefer that they reduce the price a little, more like a junior high game: $3-$5 range. Also, if I'm paying for a game-I want to see a game for sure. No 10 play alternating series' and coaches on the field, I want to see as close to the real thing as I can get for my scrimmage money.
There wasn't any cost to attend.i believe Greenon did not charge tonight against Shawnee.
This I dont mind. But I dont like the idea of paying for scrimmages. Just like I hate having preseason NFL games included in my season tickets.I have seen it in the past some teams have been smart and used their home scrimmage as a fundraiser for a group, such as a chicken bowl, where ya sold chicken dinner tickets. Gets people to show up, possibly stay, and make some group some $$$ at the same time without fleecing the fans.
Start a tradition and people will start to expect and look for it.
I remember the canned goods for admissionWhen I was a senior in 1972 (man I'm old) admission for a scrimmage game was a bar of soap...
