Like others, I respect your sentiment, but I know Brownsburg has been sending teams for over a decade. I am curious, as you singled out one tournament, did you have kids participating in it and were unaware of the participation rules or are these type tournaments something completely new for you? Truly being serious. The "push" to keep the tournament to just a weekend is what many have done to limit travel times and cost. Many leagues around central Indiana participate this these various tournaments. As kids get a bit older, some even participate in State teams that travel the country playing 3-6 games a weekend. Just wanted to provide some additional perspective since my assumption is the OP was unaware of the magnitude of these. I don't see this changing any time soon, if not expanding for many. JMO.
