Does anyone have any input on how much weight a HS coach should have in selecting a summer team?

Wahoos80,

Great question. I'm interested to hear what others have to say.

I guess we would consider their input if it was provided or they seek involvement. Previously, we never considered a high school coaches involvement at any point in selecting a summer team. I have a college freshmen and high school sophomore, and I have to admit it never crossed my mind nor did we ever discuss it. My oldest son wanted to play at the highest travel ball levels, and get college exposure. We tried out for a 15U national travel team at the urging of his former travel coach. HS coach had no involvment whatsoever.
