putting in my 2 cents, only because we brought 33 kids to the tournament and were allotted 7 coaches bands, and I KNOW for a fact that a few times there were more than 7 kids up at a time on the mats. I personally don't mind paying a little bit for extra coaches bands, but when you have a large club bringing a lot of kids to a tournament, such consideration should play in a part of the coach band situation and maybe the ratio should be a little different. of course you will always get both sides of every situation and for the most part Hutch ran a very well organized tournament.
