Maybe I am wrong here, but it doesn't seem right that tournaments charge $25 for an entry fee, and you award the champion of each weight with an simple 8.5" x 11" plain white paper bracket. I understand the convenience of printing brackets instead of filling out by hand. But at minimum at least print it on 11"x17" paper. Or even buy colored paper. Or even upgrade to a card stock paper grade. But to award a champion a flimsy little white paper bracket isn't right. I will get off my soapbox now.

Or use it to pay the table help, officials, custodial staff...and give the kid a medal. They don't need a bracket. Some kids are in brackets of 1 or 2....Do they charge to get in for parents? How many officials? I agree paper that is flimsy is a tad off, maybe Dollar Tree frames to go with them?

Tournaments come out well ahead in revenue after paying out all that you mentioned.
