Hi. My sophomore D is interested in playing basketball in college. She currently plays on the varsity team at her HS and will play AAU when the HS season ends. Her AAU team is signed up for tournaments pretty much every weekend during the spring season. We are trying to determine what camps/clinics to sign her up for over the summer to get her additional exposure. She is not looking to play D1. Any thoughts?
Her exposure will come at tournaments during the July viewing period. Make sure her AAU team is playing in NCAA certified viewing tournaments.
There are camps run by ranking services that are exposure camps, but unless she is an elite player, they are a bit of a waste of time and money.
Have her start emailing coaches at schools that interest her. Send the coaches a link to her highlight video on Youtube. If they are interested, they will get back to her and ask what her July schedule is, so they can come watch her in person.
And if any of the schools she is interested in are running summer camps, those would be good to attend.
Thank you Sanmin! I will have to see if any of the tournaments are NCAA certified. Appreciate the help.
No problem! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions on specific tournaments, etc. We just got done with this process for DD’16 for basketball.
