Very true. But in TN last spring the State "backed" the Assignor and supervisors in disbanding the local association leaders who had been voted into leadership by ballot. They took control of the bank account and the scholarship account, and have provided only a "balance sheet". No information on to whom our money is going to, just how much is coming in an going out.
State dues $65 for 1st sport.
Local dues $85 plus $1 for each game assigned.
It is a "racket" in every understanding of the word. We can not start a new association because the State will not "recognize" a new association to meet the state mandated local "training" requirement.
