Too often, it’s on parents and coaches to raise money for their team. But there are ways to make it less of a pain.

Rising costs affect everyone in youth sports. Some families are priced out to begin with. Those who can afford the fees and the gear might not have a lot left over for the nice-to-haves – end-of-year parties, coach gifts or optional tournaments. Clubs and leagues risk losing families and may make cuts to keep registration more affordable. Everyone feels the belt tightening.

That’s where youth sports fundraising comes in.

Your sports teams have the ability to raise money with each purchase made through their team store, powered by SquadLocker. Simply add the percentage or/dollar amount to contribute for each item. SquadLocker will adjust the total price in the shopping cart to account for fundraising contributions – its that easy!

TeamSnap Fundraising makes it easy

Here’s how.

Coaches and team managers all have the option to enable Fundraising. This feature allows you to earn funds for your program with just a few steps. By enabling fundraising, items are marked up to your desired percentage (5%, 10%, or 15%). Once enabled each time a purchase is made in your store funds are collected. Once you have earned more than $10.00 you can start collecting your earning.

Follow this easy to use step-by-step-guide from SquadLocker to get started.
