Fortunately we have been able to send our son to a few dozen baseball camps over the years and feel they are a very important part of the recruiting proces. Some were great and some not so great with coaches nowhere to be found, hearing the same recruiting talk Sat and Sun, no evaluation even after emailing coach for :60 time etc Talking with the coaches ahead of time helps but not always. Could it be beneficial to have a forum to allow posters on this board to rate the camps? Maybe a generic form that had same questions and then a comment area. Some areas of interest might be 1. Number of participants (rough guess) 2. Did you get receive a written evaluation 3. Did Head Coach watch and interact one on one with players. 4. Was time well spent...camp format, etc. These are just a few rough ideas. Most kids can only afford a few camps each year and.having this information could be helpful. Not trying to bash camps in any way - just this past weekend son got his second D1 offer at a camp that we don' t think had seen him play prior to that. These camps are generally pretty expensive it would be great to have a way to review. Like a "Tripadvisor" for camps.
