Why clubs call us

A tournament is your club's best fundraiser — and a second full-time job.

Every club knows the math: a well-run tournament on your own fields can clear five figures for your program. But somebody has to build the registration, market it, chase entries, schedule 40 teams across divisions, answer 300 emails, coordinate the referees, and run the whole day without dropping a ball.

That somebody is usually a DOC or a board volunteer who already has a full-time job. That's why so many club tournaments stay small — or never happen at all.

We do this for a living. Hand us the operations, keep your fields, your brand, and your profit.

"Our mission is to help more people play more soccer, more often. We've spent 25 years learning how to fill and run tournaments — now we're putting that machine to work for your club." — Travis Tew, Founder, 5v5 Soccer

The fundraiser math

What a 60-team weekend can look like

60 teams × $750 entry ($650–$850 typical)$45,000
Referees− $7,200
Awards & supplies− $1,800
5v5 management fee− $9,500
Your club keeps≈ $26,500

Illustrative example — your numbers depend on entry fee, team count, and local ref rates. Our pricing is simple: a flat management fee plus a per-team rate, so we only do well when your event fills. Drawing traveling teams? Hotel room blocks and CVB (visitors bureau) partnerships can add thousands more on top — we'll build that into your plan. Exact quote on a 15-minute call.

  • You control field space — a complex you own, lease, or can reserve for a weekend
  • Your club and committed partner clubs can realistically field 45–50+ teams — you're the engine that brings 80% of the entries, and a healthy full-sided event is 60+ teams
  • You've got other clubs, rec programs, and high schools within 30 minutes
  • Someone at your club will own the marketing push (we make it copy-paste easy)
  • Your target weekend is 3–6 months out
Questions

Frequently asked questions

Whose tournament is it — yours or ours?
Yours. Your club's name, your brand, your entry fees, your profit. We're the operations engine behind it. (Our 5v5 events are a different thing — this service is us running your full-sided event.)
What formats can you run?
Full-sided 11v11, 9v9, and 7v7 youth tournaments, plus small-sided and adult formats if you want them. One-day or full-weekend. We'll recommend the format that fits your fields and market on the scoping call.
Who fills the event — you or us?
Honest answer: mostly you. It's your event and your community — plan on your club and network bringing 80%+ of the teams. What we do is make that push easy and effective: a proven marketing kit (graphics, captions, email scripts), a weekly pacing plan, plus our own amplification — campaigns to the teams in our national database near you and geo-targeted social ads. We run this playbook 200+ times a year; clubs that work it hit their number.
What does it cost?
A flat management fee plus a per-team rate — no percentage of your revenue, no surprises. The per-team piece means we're motivated to fill your event, not just run it. You'll have an exact quote after one 15-minute call.
How much lead time do you need?
Full-sided tournaments take longer to fill than small-sided events: 3 months minimum, and 3–6 months is the sweet spot. Marketing runway is what builds a 60-team event. If your date is closer than that, let's talk about the next window instead.
Who pays the referees?
Your club pays referees and awards directly at local rates — those are pass-through costs, not ours to mark up. We coordinate with your local assignor so crews are booked and schedules line up.
Can our tournament be a fundraiser?
That's the whole point. A filled tournament on fields you already control is one of the strongest fundraisers in youth soccer — see the example math above. We'll also give you a plan to grow it into an annual tradition.
