Ok I will start this off by admitting I am a numbers guy. Question for those of you that travel for the purposes of scholarships. Do you consider if you are spending more on travel ball than the actual scholarships might be worth? Or is it more about your daughters reaching goals of playing softball at an elite level? Those things are different to me. I just know some that are spending a fortune on kids for travel ball and I am not sure their specific kids wouldn’t benefit much more with a college savings account.
With all that said I spend a lot also because my kid loves it. I hope she plays some level college just because it means I get to watch her play a little longer. Just interesting to see the different reasons people have.

We're not there yet, as my DD just turned 13. But we do plan on making college campus visits, regardless of softball. So some of the cost of a clinic on a campus would have been spent (for some schools) anyway. If she might get into Penn State and wants to go to Penn State, we will try to take a trip to see Penn State. I assume that can be somewhat packaged with a softball clinic on campus.
Right?
