By having two tournaments in a small geographic area, you are actually hurting both clubs. The funds for the club are generated only after all overhead has been taken care of. If two clubs split the pool of attendees then no one wins. It isn't a matter of greed. Since these tournaments are sanctioned, I feel the sanctioning body should govern where and when tournaments happen. There should be some guidelines or rules to apply. If a tournament violates or is unable to meet them then they should not be permitted to host the following year.

I want to say I appreciate all of the effort and work that everyone has put forth to host the many tournaments we have the option of attending. This is not an attack or a matter of greed. It is an idea which I feel would ultimately benefit the kids, after all that is who we invest in this sport for.
