There is "recruiting" going on in 12U..it is just on the down-low now. I've seen multiple social media posts from very good 08 players (2026/2027's) from big name orgs attending P5 camps..if you don't think the coaches are taking notice of these kids you are kidding yourself (that wasn't directed at you @RADcatcher ...). I doubt these 12/13 YO kids are flying from TX to FL to attend a camp on a whim..and when we remember that early recruitment actually happened in 14u...
Yes paying attention to 12u can see some who are on their way.
Basketball is sort of how softball used to be. DD's bball coach is talking about the kids getting twitter accounts and getting them in front of coaches, etc. She is entering 6th grade... I am like how about they show they can hit two 15 foot jumpers in a row in a game before we start talking to Gino.. Our neighbor is entering the 9th grade and she has all kinds of offers already..seems silly to me but what do I know.
