Clay Kallam visits a top summer prep tournament, and excoriates much of what he sees: "The summer grind that [college] coaches and [top high school] players are forced to go through pushes the mind and body to their limits," and not in a good way.

Kallam reports overuse injuries, useless endurance tests, a Red Queen's Race for coaches' time and attention, "emphasis on the individual over the team," and very physical (maybe even dangerous) play.
