2010 Registration & Raffle Ticket Commonly Asked Questions:
Q: What are the spring 2010 fees?
A: Registration fees are as follows:
$55 for 5-6 year olds
$95 for 7-8 year olds
$105 for 9-16 year olds
$275 Family maximum payment (including raffle tickets)
Special considerations: A $10 discount is available for registrations before October 15, 2009. A late fee of $25 will be assigned for registrations after December 31, 2009. Please register early and save money!
Q: What is the cost of Prize-a-Day raffle tickets?
A: Tickets will remain $5 each and $25 a book as in years past. We have found that this price structure drives the best results. 1 book of 5 tickets is included with your registration fee. These prepaid tickets will be color coded differently than additional tickets given for selling once the season begins.
Q: Why do I have to pay for my raffle tickets now?
A: Mansfield Youth Baseball is dependant on different income streams. Registration fees are the largest stream, but fundraising and concessions are very important as well. In order to keep our registration fees as low as possible, we must do the best job possible in fundraising. We are indebted to your efforts in the past and will be going forward as well. We are hoping for even greater involvement with our Prize-a-Day program distributing the raffle tickets in this manner.
Q: What do I do with the money after I sell my tickets?
A: Families will keep the money after turning in sold tickets. Think of this as the rebate on the earlier pre-pay for the raffle tickets.
Q: When do I get my raffle tickets to sell?
A: MYBI will distribute raffle tickets in the spring just as in years past. Tickets will be distributed after teams form.
Q: Where can I sell them?
A: Players can sell their tickets to neighbors, family members, friends, etc. In addition, we will be organizing special events such as community sales as we have in past years. Players can bring their tickets to community sales and sell them there if other sales opportunities are not available. We want to help players succeed in selling their tickets, which not only results directly in lower family costs, but also helps the league.
Q: What if I can't sell my tickets?
A: As described above, MYBI will help by creating community sales opportunities.
Q: What if I don't want to sell tickets?
A: Players and families don't need to sell their tickets – they can be kept ‘in the family’ as your own raffle tickets. You will want to turn in the ticket stubs, properly filled out, as you will be eligible to win prizes each day! Many families keep a few tickets now – it’s fun, and it supports our league.
Q: Do I need to sell additional tickets...or...I like to sell tickets in the community, can I still do so?
A: The league would greatly benefit from your participation in voluntary community sales. As in years past, we expect to do fund raising 'in the field'. Q: Will there still be prizes awarded to players who sell more than just their allotted tickets? (I.e. most tickets sold by a Rookie player, etc, etc)A: We expect that incentive prizes will continue as this is a great system to reward players who have worked so hard to support our program.
