    college camps

    DD got an emailed invite to a local (less than two hours away) division III college softball camp today. Not sure how they got her email, and she has never really desired to play in college. Do they use those camps to actually recruit and look at players abilities, or is is just a fund raiser...

    A different high school thread...

    So, DD is a junior this year, and I have watched our high school games for a few years before that, so short sample size for reference.

    NCSA recruiting service?

    Anyone have any dealings with or knowledge of NCSA Scouting? Apparently DD made a profile on their website (partially). She didn't add much information to it. I didn't think she has much desire to actually play in college, so it kind of surprised me. I think she was just bored more or less...
