How will these fee increases impact sports programs in Portland?
Each league will likely need to increase sponsorships, donations, and/or registration fees. PP&R is working with youth leagues to support them in their sponsorship efforts. For many leagues simple reductions in unused practice bookings will save significant dollars. Adult leagues who have the ability to travel will move some of their play out of the City. This may continue, but could have the unintended consequence of providing greater access to other sports that have had trouble accessing our facilities.
