[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your son might be able to play D3 - it is still very competitive to get recruited and it is a huge time commitment once in college, but it can be a real joy - my D3 baseball playing son is happy as a clam.

But if that isn’t a fit, there is club ball! You can do a search for schools with club baseball and narrow your search that way. [b]Some clubs are super competitive[/b] and go to the club World Series, and some are just for fun. Your son will need to do some research to find the right fit.

I hope he continues. One of the best things about college sports teams (whatever the level) is community and friends the first weeks and months of school. There is an immediate friend group with activities and meet ups and support, and that is really nice.[/quote]

You should check this out at any particular school.  Many competitive club teams may only add like 2-3 kids each year because they aren't keeping a 34 man roster like varsity and they only replace who they lose.

I know a school like Indiana University has multiple club levels, so nearly everyone can find a team...though you may not make the highest level of club.  The highest club level at Indiana almost functions like the Minor Leagues in the MLB where an injured Varsity player will be added to the club team as they start gradually playing again before they jump back up to Varsity.[/quote]
