Anyone noticed drop in amateur tournament attendance and increase in registration prices?
I started playing local tournaments in ON, Canada few years back and noticed the same events have gone from $80 + HST to $125 + HST. Also, noticed clublocker is tacking on an additional 4%.
On top of that I've noticed the registrations have also dropped on the few events I've been tracking by looking at the entrants on clublocker. These events used to have waitlists, now they are combining divisions due to insufficient players.
Even at my local club suddenly this past winter there were so many open time slots. Couple years ago you had to book a week in advance.
