What's Going On?
We are Syracuse Snare, a Club Sports team at Syracuse University (with a few ESFers for good measure)! With hard work and dedication, we snared a spot to Quidditch Cup 9 in Columbia, SC for the first time in our history.
Usually seen as the underdog of the Northeastern teams, we are asking for your support to get the team to Nationals, and show everyone what we're all about!
In order to get there with a full roster of 21 players (plus our lovely team mom/secretary), we need to make it over 1600 miles there and back. Due to the new "stay to play" policy of US Quidditch, we are also required to stay as a team at least 2 nights in their designated hotels. We have a tournament registration fee of $450. This adds up to over $2,800, but with funds we have already raised, our goal for this campaign is $1,700.
What Happens if we Don't Reach Our Goal?
If we don't reach our goal, our players are going to have to try to pay for all of these (pretty high) costs out of pocket, which might limit who is able to be on the roster and will definitely put a hit on our wallets, so every donation helps, even if it's just five dollars!
So, What Do You Get?
Besides all of our undying love and support and good vibes, in order to entice you to help offset some of our costs, we have created some great perks to reward your support. These perks include SNAREwear, art by some of our amazing artists, and other fun options. All donations will contribute to our travel costs and will be forever appreciated.
