USSSA Baseball
Economic Impact Formula
1. Number of teams ( x)
2. 25, the average number of players, fans, coaches, spectator per team,( x)
3. Days of event ( x)4. Daily Average Cost of Meals, Lodging and Incidentals ( x)5. Impact Factor – the impact of outside dollars on the local economy for
rollover. 1.65 is the Impact Factor.
10 teams x 25 x 2 days x $ 200.00 (conservative) x 1.65=
$165,000.00 per Tournament
This is what is realized when the “new dollar” into the
community is spent up to 5 times. Each time the new
money is spent a portion is lost due to taxes, so the dollarloses its economic impact to community over time and the
community becomes “stale”. Communities have to
generate “new money” to prosper, otherwise, they don’t
grow.

Lauderdale County Baseball Travel Teams2010
There were 12 USSSA baseball travel teams in Lauderdale
County. The team’s ages ranged from 7 to 14. Each team
traveled outside Lauderdale County an average of 8 times
last year. The Teams will begin the Travel season again in
February of 2011.
Using the Same formula the USSSA uses to determine
economic impact. We can determine the real dollarsLauderdale County residents are spending in other
communities.
Teams, X Players, Parents, and Fans, X Days of Event, X
average daily cost(Hotels ,Meals Gas, and Incidentals), X
number of out of town Tournaments = Real Dollars Spent
Real dollars spent by Travel Teams from Lauderdale County in other Cities
around our State.
12 teams X 25 fans and players X 2 days X 200$ average daily cost X 8out of town Tournaments =
$960,000.00 per year.
Thank you for reviewing this information. Please let us know if you haveany questions.
