As for "until you enter into the recruiting process"...there is a bit of a debate on when that actually is!

LOL, I have said for awhile now that the person who opens up an assessment shop for 6u-12u would make a killing in the Atlanta area! I almost didn't include the numbers below 14u, but I figured it would be good for a laugh. Right now on the local threads they are talking about 10u baseball teams who recruit players from out of town and state...I wish I were kidding!
