Absolutely disgraceful. Why punish kids because they live out of town.

Shane on you PA, I a time when our communities are struggling you are making even less affordable for lower to average income families to keep their children productively busy!!! Our community NEVER closes doors or charges extra for opportunities especially when it comes to our youth. You all really should be ashamed of your decisions. You are a contributing factor to a rising problem, this is a solution for who???

Stop the madness, these people that come into the city do they not spend there money locally and keep the city striving? Give your a head a shake and stop punishing the kids

I have 2 kids in PA minor sports. Without rural kids participating in minor sports, Prince Albert would not have the number of participants required to field enough teams to have meaningful seasons (hockey,baseball,lacrosse etc). Our rural family contributes to the local Prince Albert economy…groceries, gas , clothing, restaurants etc. Rural kids also go to school in the city. Please rethink this one. My suggestion is to have the rural fee the same as the fee for city users.

Rural residents drive to PA on a weekly basis to spend money and do business of some sort. Absolutely ridiculous.

Punishing the rural community families/ children is just ridiculous! Why on earth would we be charged more than city residents?? ( yearly rec fee of $72)

Our communities shouldn't be hampering any children from any sport, especially with extra fees. There are enough negative distractions for our youth to fall into.

We will not be putting any of our kids into sports in PA now. We also wont be shopping there anymore either because of these fees.

This is insane. Many of us rural families come in and do our other errands at the same time - how's that going to work Prince Albert when we choose other communities and do our groceries/errands/banking there instead.

Way to target the people who bring your city money! For every prince albert citizen shopping in the city, there's 3 more from out of town.

Saskatoon is close enough that rural residents could choose to boycott all pa business if that is put in effect.The door swings both ways.
