The bass fishing team brings in their own sponsor support. Just like they did with my company the times we sponsored them. That money is then split with the team in a form of expenses to fish tournaments. The members of the team do not get the money for drugs and hookers.

If I remember well, the team had around 60 members when I was affiliated with them. They have internal tournaments to decide order in the team. Highest placing guys within the team gets to do the bigger events and tournaments. They earn their way in

The majority of the money needed for the team to travel and compete comes from the sponsors they get on their own. The school gives them pennies
