Generally, people who have made the team played on high level travelball teams and get their experience and exposure playing for a D1 school. Crystl Bustos is an exception having played for a community college. Check out her bio here: www.usasoftball.com/bios.asp?uid=771

Charity,
If by "homeschooler" you mean not having attended public or private elementary and/or high school, I'm sure this would have no bearing on USA team selection.

Thanks!!

school doesnt matter if you go to college or play on a travel team anything can happen do you play on a travel team
