I have read a lot of post hear about getting players to showcases and camps for college exposure. With times the way they are right now money is a huge issue with me. I am worried this will affect my boys chances of getting the exposure they deserve.
I have two boys that I beleive have the tools to play college baseball. One is a (Jr) catcher/3rd baseman and the younger one (Fr) is a pitcher/catcher.
My older son is not a D1 talent, I don't think, but he has the tools to play for a D11 or JUCO college as a catcher. His POP times are respectable at 1.90-2.00 with room for improvement with the right coach (will get to this point in a minute). He is strong at the plate as well. Hit .500 at HS this year with 8 HRs.
My younger son (Freshman) has the potential to be something special, in my opinion. His POP time is already 2.00 Avg and occasionally hits in the 1.9s. Has good arm and fast feet and hands. He is throwing in the 80s (83+/-) on the mound with good off speed pitches. If he continues to progress I think he could possibly be D1 material.
With all that said, my question is what does a father do to get his sons exposure with LIMITED funds? I want to give my boys every opportunity they deserve but I am not sure how to do that. Any help in this area would be GREATLY appreciated.
