Do the well regarded showcase teams not cost a lot of money?  How does a normal person even know which teams to try out for?[/quote]

Go the the Perfect Game website and look at the team rankings by age group.  The top 20-30 teams are legitimately incredible teams...after that, the rankings get a little wonky and subjective (but they are still loaded with D1 commits).

It all depends how good you are whether it costs a lot of money or not.  As an example, Bryce Harper paid $0 to play for these teams in HS because they all wanted him to play for their team in these national tournaments.

So, for the 50-100 top HS players in the country it is reasonable...but everyone else is paying.  Everyone else pays up to play on these teams because they are hoping the reputation of the team and the exposure of their super-star teammates will rub off on them with a Power 5 D1 commitment.[/quote]
