We live in Hawaii and do not have many opportunities to get off island to get noticed by Colleges for recruiting. my son was selected to this UA-Bfactory pre-season All American tournament coming up in January 2015. Is this this worth the effort to fly to AZ,which from HI is costly.He is a HS Junior,catcher and just played in the JR Fall Classic.thank you for any info and experience with this tournament.

Yeah.
The only All-American game that's meaningful is the former Aflac All-American game, which is now the Perfect Game All-American game. Even that has some favors thrown in there, IMO.
Thank you all for your responses. This has helped us with the decision of spending limited time and $ getting to the mainland to showcase Hawaiian talent.
Is he looking at Yavapai College in Prescott AZ? My son plays for them and they always have 2-4 kids from Hawaii every year. If you need info let me know.
