Agenda 11/10/2015 Item #16F1 11/10/2015 16.F.1 .
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommend approval of Tourist Tax Category "B" funding to support three upcoming FY 16
sports events up to S 8,900.00 and make a finding that these expenditures promote tourism.
OBJECTIVE: Approve funding support for managing and promoting three upcoming sports events in
Collier County during FY 16.
CONSIDERATIONS: Collier County is scheduled to host the following events in FY 16. These events
will take place at North Collier Regional Park in November. The Tourism Division Sports Marketing
Team has attracted these prestigious events to our community. The projected hosting costs to support and
promote these events are based on our past experience with similar events. The Tourist Development
Council proposes to pay the field rental for each of these three (3) events. Field rental is an authorized
expenditure for sports assistance funding.
The STX Paradise Shootout will take place on November 7-8, 2015. This lacrosse tournament includes
players from 1311 up to High School Elite. There will also be at least 33 college head coaches in
attendance scouting players. Last year this tournament attracted 2,250 visitors, an economic impact of
$843,750, and 850 room nights. The expenses to be paid by Collier County to support this tournament
will be the field rental for North Collier Regional Park for the two days at a projected cost of$3,200.00.
The Alligator Alley Lax Classic will take place on November 14-15, 2015. This tournament includes
Youth boys and girls teams as well as adult players with a division of teams over 50+. Last year this
tournament attracted 200 visitors and had an economic impact of$35,437. This tournament has doubled
in size the last two years and we expect this number to grow with the addition of youth teams. The
expenses to be paid by Collier County to support this tournament will be the field rental for North Collier
Regional Park for the two days at a projected cost of$3,200.00.
The Paradise Coast Invitational will take place on November 20-22, 2015. This tournament is a fast
pitch softball tournament that attracts elite youth softball athletes. There will be Division 1, 1I, and II1
college coaches in attendance on the last weekend of the NCAA college recruiting contact period for
2015. This is a first year tournament but has already obtained its maximum 30 teams registered. This
tournament is projected to bring in 435 visitors, 320 room nights and an economic impact of$108,225.00.
The expenses to be paid by Collier County to support this tournament will be the field rental for North
Collier Regional Park for the three days at a projected cost of$2,500.00.
The economic impact of the three events is estimated at approximately $1,019,250.00, an estimated 1,344
room nights and also $5,436.00 in Tourist Tax Revenue. The total projected cost from the County is
$8,900.00.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding of up to $8,900 for these events is included in the BCC approved FY 16
Tourism Department budget in Fund 184 for Sports Marketing Event support.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact to the Growth Management Plan from this
action.
ADVISORY BOARD RECOMMENDATION: The Tourist Development Council recommended
approval of this item 5-0 at the October 26, 2015 meeting.
