  - Mileage will be calculated using the most direct route from the farm,
    - 210 Mountain View Ave, Santa Rosa (Google Maps or equivalent).
- **Meals**: $40 per day
- **Lodging**: Equal-grade hotel accommodations
  - Coaches will be provided with lodging equivalent in quality to what is arranged for the team
  - Night before lodging ONLY if the game is at 8am and the location is 2 hours away or more

**Accounting Responsibilities**

- The **Coach and Team Manager** are responsible for all accounting related to team fees, including tracking, collecting, and reporting.
- The **Club is not responsible** for the accounting or management of individual team fees.
- Any discrepancies, collections, or outstanding balances must be handled at the **team level**, with oversight by the coach and team manager.
- If there are **any concerns or discrepancies**, they must be **escalated directly to the Club Director, Jorge Castaneda**, for resolution.

**Example Breakdown**

Below is an example to illustrate how costs should be calculated and divided among players:

- **Tournament Fee**: $1,200
- **Hotel**: $159 for one night
- **Meals**: $40 (Saturday full day) + $20 (Sunday half day) = $60
- **Mileage**: 103 miles each way = 206 miles × $0.70 = $144.20

**Total Coach Expenses:**$1,200 (tournament) + $159 (hotel) + $60 (meals) + $144.20 (mileage) = **$1,563.20**

**Team Division:**15 players ÷ $1,563.20 = **$104.21 per player**

**NOTE: This full breakdown (or similar) must be shared with parents in writing for clarity and transparency (via Heja, group chat, or email) before any payment is requested.**
