Apple 30% Apply to Recreational Sports?

Would registering for a physical sporting event get hit by the 30% IAP fee? Spots are typically limited, so the app just helps coordinate signups, so that players don't show up to a completely booked session.

I'm also wondering if I can allow the user to pre-fund their account, for example with $30, so that they can sign up a $10 session and still have a balance of $20 in their account to sign up for more sessions.
