Ask around and don't just take my word for it, perhaps somebody else had an amazing experience. I have a friend and their kid is 12U and plays on the tourney team. Not a big hitter, he is tiny (like 70 lbs) and a good fielder. But they send him to these events for big $$ because he gets a profile and they track his stuff, etc. I just think that their model is to attend some of these tournaments and find above average kids and sell the parents on the scouting dream.

I hear they preference the younger kids because it is more $$ to string along. They won't make much money by bringing a 16 year old in who maybe has 1-2 years.
