The sad thing about this is that the kids have no skin in it, other than wanting to play on the sports team. Want to do well and travel for tourneys/meets/play offs/etc? Gotta get the fund raising in.
Even sadder is the school gets a small fraction. Lets say every kid on the team gives 20 addresses, and each person contacted donates $100. Thats $2k collected, but the school will see at most half of that.
And then of course there is the whole inviting spam thing and breach of privacy, etc.
The nice thing about running my own domain is that I can configure email how I like. So me-anything@mydomain gets delivered to me@mydomain. Each company I do business with gets their own address - me-company@mydomain. When I start getting spam, I know who sold/gave out/lost due to breach my info. If it gets bad enough, I can turn that alias into a real address and redirect the mail - usually to the published "contact us", "sales" or "CEO" email address.
