Two orgs in the California Bay Area concentrate on giving high school students thinking about playing in college a chance to play medium high competition and advice how to get the attention of college coaches at D3 and NAIA coaches by advising them to create highlights videos from game video, regularly email coaches. They typically only play 1 tournament that requires a hotel stay a summer, most of the rest some AST at AST's more competitive tournaments, and a PGF tournament or two. I believe this year they each have 1 senior going a mid-major and 1 or 2 players going to highly ranked academic D3 programs. There are also a couple very good softball players playing for them that want to stay sharp for HS but have no intention of playing in college.
It is possible to get exposure playing fairly local at a fairly reasonable price.... but the players need to market themselves.
It's like the process of chosing which colleges to apply for. Research 1-2 dream schools, 3-5 reach schools, 3-5 likely admit schools, and a safety school or two.
