Season cost estimator

Enter what you know so far — planning ahead, mid-season, or adding up a season that just ended. Leave anything at zero if it doesn't apply; travel, meals and tournament fees are calculated from the numbers you enter, and a blank field simply counts as nothing entered yet.

Manage this season as it actually unfolds

Seasons rarely finish where they start. The Season Planner keeps four numbers side by side, all year:

Baseline — what you thought the season would cost when you started.
Current projection — what you now expect as the schedule, hotel rates and tournament details get confirmed.
Actual spending — what you have really paid, category by category.
Final season tab — the real total, kept as history so next year starts from real numbers.

This free estimate stays free and complete — it is just a one-time snapshot on this device. The planner covers one athlete for one season, plus the full Roster Guide.
