Rant: why are kids sports so expensive now
I'm losing my mind. Baseball registration is 200 bucks, then you need the uniform, glove, cleats, batting gloves. Add in the tournament fees and we're pushing 1000 for a 10 week season. And that's just one kid. I played sports growing up and it was never like this. When did it become such a money grab? Thinking about pulling him out and just having him play casually at the park instead.
Yeah man, baseball is brutal on the wallet. Between registration, gear, and tournaments we're looking at like $800+ per kid per season. I've started checking Facebook Marketplace for used equipment just to survive.
