[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- we are at a competitive public. Most boys who are playing club basketball are doing it in order to make middle and high school teams. I am sure they all love the sport and have fun as well, but their parents and the kids goal is to make the middle and high school teams. [/quote] It definitely pays off in HS and nearly always helps with admission and scholarships to top universities.[/quote] No. Everyone thinks their kid is going to be a recruited athlete or even professional. Travel is practically a necessity to play in HS, but it’s no guarantee. And people need to consider their sports, look at the number of football scholarships vs baseball. Participate in travel if your kid absolutely loves their sport. Support them as you do in all endeavors. But don’t ever count on your kid being a recruited athlete or pro. [/quote]
