It really depends on your situation and your child. If he is an Power 5 prospect and/or wants to go play at an out of state school etc, then it may be worth the trip. Our personal situation was that due to academics, financial etc, we were going to go to college at an in- state college (GA). We had several offers to play tournaments in Arizona, Omaha and others. My standard answer was if you want him to go he would love to. But there are no coaches that will see him in Arizona, that are in- state schools, that can't see him locally. Therefore, there is no benefit to him so I wont be paying. Now he did go on some good trips, and we did spend money, but only for the experience. Not for exposure. You have to figure out the benefits and costs and each family is different. Good Luck
