I'm in process of deciding with DD which college camps to attend in the summer, fall, etc. While researching, I'm finding out more and more that the scholarships given out to softball athletes are minimal in value, in comparison to total cost of attendance. My kid isn't a D1 blue chip athlete...

Parent of a soon to be 12u pitcher! Started about a year ago in 10u and daughter started pitching in tournaments just this summer. It’s been a heck of a ride so far!
