If your kid has something to show (sounds like he does) then not a problem showcasing early. Just pace your kid; most important are continued skill development, good competition, and you as a parent managing his arm. Make sure you know what the fall tourney's are and the rigor of the off season training because you'll want to plan for solid shut down of your sons arm for 8-12 weeks to allow healing of soft tissue. Not all coaches or programs are in agreement with length of time. But scheduling down time is key to healthy happy competitive kid with bright future.
