DD was invited to a camp at a D2 school after the coach watched her play at a showcase tournament this weekend. TB coach confirmed that they have openings in DDs position and are interested in her. The question is: should we (parents) stay for the camp? Or do the coaches prefer the parents to go and just be there for the end? DD has been to a bunch of camps but this is the first one that she has been invited to by the coach and she is very interested in the school. I certainly don't want to do anything that would reflect negatively...

Oh and she is 17.

Attending the camp and sitting quietly is fine. Occasionally a coach will come and talk to you during it. Just don't follow DD around from station to station or try to talk to her.

I attended camps with my DD and just kept my mouth shut. If the coach asks questions let your DD respond.

Attend, have something else to do once in a while there so it doesn't look like you are on edge with everything she does and enjoy the moment.
