2 / What did the year actually cost?

Best estimate is fine. Enter $0 for anything that didn't apply. You need at least three non-zero categories to submit.

Team fees (per year)

Base seasonal fee paid to the org. $0 if you didn't pay anything to the team itself.

Tournament entry fees (per year)

Sum of any tournament fees billed separately from the base team fee.

Travel + lodging (per year)

Hotels, gas, flights, meals on the road for tournaments.

Equipment (per year)

Bats, gloves, cleats, helmets, bags, batting gloves — your out-of-pocket gear spend.

Private lessons (per year)

Hitting / pitching / fielding instruction outside team practice.

Tryout fees (per year)

Often $30–$200 per org. Include every org you tried out for, not just the one you chose.

Gate fees (per year)

Often $10/spectator/day. Multiply by tournaments and family members if you can.

Hidden / surprise fees (per year)

Banquets, fundraising buyouts, app fees, end-of-season gifts — the stuff that wasn't on the sign-up sheet.
