My 2011 will play D3 baseball next Spring. He is young for a college freshman, as he will not turn 18 till September 2. He is looking at options for next summer. He talked to his college coach about next summer. His coach has some tie ins with some pretty good leagues, such as the prospect league, but not many yet. He has not seen my some play at the college level yet so he would be hesitant to suggest him for one of those teams at this time. Maybe after Fall season. I do not have any issues with this.
Some of the local wood bat teams would be an option. In fact several were interested in him for last summer. He chose to play for very good 18U team in our state last summer instead. As a pitcher or outfielder he faced several of these wood bat teams and they had trouble competing.
So now to my question. Would it be better to play for the 18U travel team and probably face better competition? Or play for one of the local wood bat teams?
If I have not provided enough info let me know and I will be happy to supply more.
Thanks
