Although my son attended his first as a rising soph. From my experience these camps focus primarily on juniors and seniors. They can become expensive so target schools you feel your son can compete in. Some offer feedback others don't.
Thanks. The focus on upperclassmen makes sense. That might be a risk that I can weigh against the benefit of my son getting to see what type of player the coaches are looking for (physical maturity, skills, etc.). Since it's early for him, getting to see what he needs to be down the road could be a positive.
The cost is definitely something to consider. That's, at least some, of the reason that I am considering one this early. I want my son to see a few college campuses-- whether he plays baseball or not. Spreading out the visits (and costs) over a longer period of time could reduce the feeling of being rushed or squeezed in the last 2 years of high school.
Thanks again for your perspective.
