How clubs handle costs is entirely up to them. Most clubs charge players a fee; others rely on sponsorships to offset expenses. The structure can be customized to meet the club’s needs.
The SPL doesn’t enforce minimum coaching standards. However, most teams are led by former collegiate players, professionals, or club directors. Some teams utilize player coaches whose understanding of the game aligns with the professional aspects of the sport.
