Overview

Mission

To provide organization/instruction for female youth athletes in AZ between the ages of 8 and 18 that are interested in pursuing activity in Softball. Also to ensure participation in organizational training/tournament events for female athletes.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and some filed totals do not add up.
