So, COVID forced some schedule changes, as things scheduled for May/June pushed to July/August.
But Tournament/Camp directors obviously don't communicate and coordinate!
Pennsbury Academic Camp and Tournament moved from June to August,
and created a conflict with Headfirst Honor Roll Camp (Northeast Sessions).
And today, Headfirst announces that they are moving the camp from NY long Island to Virginia,
but dates remain the same.
This is hurtful to players in two ways:
1. There aren't many "academic" camps offered, and now the two best in the Northeast region conflict - so players will have to choose.
2. DIII coaches and staff will either have to choose between events or "divide and conquer".
Without giant travel budgets, I suspect the coaches that do venture out, will probably attend the Pennsbury camp, and then try and sneak away during the Pennsbury Tournament to maybe catch session II of Headfirst. But who knows...
It just sucks these organizations couldn't work something out that is better for all involved.
This year is already so hard to swallow....
