Fees should go up a bit.A heck of a lot of the procceds at local tourn are put back into the community that allows us to participate.We help others, they help us.AS far as awards go,better medals or trophys dont mean better tourn.The better the prize the better the competion so most of the ones who want Nicer awards couldnt win one anyway.The reffs are alarge expense also,& they are a huge part of a successfull tournament,then there are facility & production cost ECT.
