: : : : : Does anyone have any tips/recommendations for out of state tournaments. KSA seems like they have a good Orlando package but does anyone know of any other companies or schools that host tournaments out of state that you recommend?(please no Vegas/Arizona) I've seen teams go to Hawaii but not sure if they did all the logistical planning on their own or had a company.

: : : : Beckman HS has gone to Hawaii recenty.
: : : : Artesia HS has gone to Florida recently.
: : : : I'd say you'll probably get some useful info from reaching to their coach about the logistics if they're willing to share.
: : : Why not help save the families money and stay local. KSA is over-rated. Damien tournament is far superior as one example.
: : We are lucky to host many events also so the families wouldn't be footing the bill. Trying to give the team a unique experience of taking a flight and staying overnight as most of them have never gone anywhere.
: : What about KSA was overrated since I'm assuming you've gone if you are stating that.
: Also I wouldn't want to go to Damien because we aren't a high level team and im not sure what the benefit is making the commute to Damien compared to a more local tournament.
Damien has so many tiers now. I'm sure your team can be competitive! It is still a really cool experience.
