Saving money problem

How not to let the kids down while saving more money on our future?

I currently have two kids 13 and 16 y/o. Both of them are into Lacrosse and therefore, I have to pay for their coaching and equipment fees constantly. When it comes to tutoring, i started to teach them on my own using online resources like Khan Academy and StudyPug chemistry instead of looking for a private tutor. However, I would like to save up for the future as I plan to buy a house for our family. I am wondering if there is a way to keep letting the kids play their sports while not needing to worry about the expenses so that I could save up.

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for all the advice, and yeah, I had a discussion with my kids recently and they understood my situation. They voluntarily said that they would go get a part time job. I really couldn't hold my emotions when I heard that. Anyways, I am going to try my best to provide them everything they need. Really appreciate all the advice.
