This year 15 year old DD plays 18 Gold and will cost - well you really don't want to know...
I'll take a stab at it. If your daughter is playing Gold for a team who is really chasing a national bid you'll easily spend $2700 just for her. That doesn't include and travel costs for you if you attend all the out of town tournaments, spending money for her if you don't go, lessons, gym time, cage time or any of a dozen other different possible expenses. If you add them all up you can easily spend $5,000 for a single season of Gold with no guarantee on your investment return.
Heck it was $1100 for the 12U team I coached last year with 2 fundraisers and not planning on attending a national tournament.
