Reply to "Summer Ball 2020 for rising sophomore"

Senna5,000+ posts

As rising sophomore, our son did both this past summer. Played for travel team for late May - late July, and also played for HS summer team in June

in retrospect, he would have committed to playing HS summer team only, and then picked up as possible for teams in July. Would have saved significant money, and saved wear & year on a young body that is still growing.

I would recommend the same for your 2023: do the HS summer ball, and then, if he’s healthy and interested, look for good teams to pick up with for July (most will have some attrition by then due to injuries). Skip any showcases/camps and focus on those his rising junior summer (if they are appropriate then).
