My experience the past few years with Pastime Tournaments has been great! Those guys do a great Job in being as efficient as possible. As far as games being so far away at some tournaments, some fields charge too much to use their facilities and rather than up the tourney cost you simply have to drive a little more.
As far as scouts go, the coach for the team your son is on should make phone calls or send emails to colleges. I called Baylor, and Houston about a lefty pitcher I have and both came to watch him. I did the same to some juncos for a couple other kids and those guys were there! And wouldn't you know it. 4 of them signed with those various schools. Crazy I know.
Lynn, congrats on your tourney win at Baylor. You have a great squad!
