Can anyone who has been to both the Jupiter WWBA and the Ft. Myers BCS championships please compair the two in terms of scouting/exposure chances. I understand, nothing compaires to Jupiter, but are there a good number of coaches/scouts at the BCS, or not so much? What about the BCS in relation to the WWBA in Georiga in the summer? Thanks for any help and opinions.

IMO, nothing compares to Jupiter. 1st class tournament with unbelievalbe exposure.
Recruiters, scouts, golf carts, and baseball:
It might one day be listed as the 8th wonder of the world.

Ft. Meyers is also an excellent tournament with not near the exposure to recruiters but just as enjoyable. If your son has the option, I would recommend going to both.

Clint sums it up well. Both are great, but I'd agree that nothing compares to Jupiter in terms of scout exposure.

Lots of scouts at Fort Meyers as well but many more at Jupiter.

Thanks guys. Son has been to Jupiter last year, this year will be at WWBA in GA, BCS in Ft Myers, and Jupiter, along with a few other events along the way. I was just kind of curious, with Jupiter being the obvious number one scouting opportunity, which event would be the number two chance, if you understand what Im trying to say.

I've never heard of At every game, USA (LOL) but if you are reluctant to attend all of these due to travel, financial, timing, etc. then I'd personally rank them this way. IMO

#1 - Jupiter (Tons of Scouts)

#2 - WWBA (1/2 Ton of Scouts)

#3 - BCS (Some scouts)

All of course have the main ingredients, i.e. plenty of baseball, lasting memories with son, and awesome baseball!

The main thing from a Dad who has been through this and misses it more than I can say, go to every single one you can financially afford to. Once he has gone off to College, this aspect is over.

Ditto youngGunDad. He has the order correct. The BCS is a fun event though. Playing in the City of Palms Stadium is a nice venue.
