Why Accommodation Dictates Tournament Performance
When managing 15 to 20 athletes, your accommodation choice directly impacts performance. Splitting team members across separate motel units creates coordination delays, poor sleep quality, and high takeout costs that strain budgets. To win on game day, your squad needs a dedicated basecamp where everyone stays together, eats nutritious meals, and recovers properly between matches.
