Now that the season is over, I'd like to get a discussion started about Booster Clubs.

Evaluate your team's Booster Club by the following criteria

1.) How involved are they? Do they do things to benefit the players and the program or do they do things just so they can get the credit for doing it and hopefully get in a little better with the coach?

2.) What does your team typically eat for their pregame meals? Some teams have pregame meals donated, or the school will fix the meal or in some cases the boosters put together the meal. Are your players given good nutritional meals or are they given pizza, French fries, BBQ...etc?

3.) Does your booster club try to provide your team with plenty of apparel to wear? Basically of all the monies raised or the football program, does your booster club use some of that for t-shirts, hoodies, etc for the players to wear?

4.) What does your booster club do to generate community interest in the program? With that being said, does your booster club do anything to try to get more community involvement from the football team? This doesn't mean that a booster officer hand picks their own kid and a few others to do things to get their picture in the paper and get recognized...it is an entire team event that everyone is made aware of and had the opportunity to participate.

5.) How many people are consistently involved in your booster club? How many attend meetings and regularly volunteer?

6.) is your booster money used in a manner you would agree is in the best interest of your football program

Any additional comments about your booster club?
