I know for me some of the concern was 1) getting more HS/MS kids to come out and second was watching out for the interest of the club.

I had gotten several verbal commitments from HS/MS then when I called the parent to confirm the $50 off the start slowed a few of them up.

I struggled to get a hold of a few of them so I put them in anyways just in case. They backed out and the club is down that money. Getting them HS/MS (or parents) just to show up and take care of the paperwork and money is a nightmare.

If I would have been stricter about no one goes until it is all done we would have had 3-4 kids instead of the 11-13 that we got. I think every club does the same.

I am willing to take on the By-law change. As long as Nix will hold my hand while I speak to the group, people make me nervous.
