Evaluations January 23 & 31

League evaluations will be held on Saturday, January 23rd and Sunday, January 31st at our field. Players need to attend only one of the two days. We will be accepting registrations during evaluations, and all players must be registered before taking the field for their evaluation.

Evaluations serve a number of purposes including helping our players shake out the cobwebs, helping our coaches in the lower divisions balance the teams, serving as a scout session for coaches in the “draft” divisions of Minors and Majors, and helping you to steer your players toward the right division if you’re unsure.

Evaluations Schedule (per “League Age” at http://bit.ly/1EZUBjp)

8:00 am                8 year olds
9:15 am                9 year olds
10:45 am              10 year olds
12:00 pm              11 year olds
1:15 pm                12 year olds
2:30 pm                7 Year olds interested in playing Farm

Evaluations Guidelines

All players 8 and up MUST attend one of the two January evaluations. This includes returning Majors players. 7 year olds interested in Farm should attend as well.

Everyone will be placed on a team. Reinforcing that message may help to cut down on the butterflies that some players feel.

Please show up 30 minutes prior to your scheduled evaluation time to stretch and warm up. Evaluations will begin promptly, so there is no time to do those things once underway. A proper warm up is a great way to positively influence a player's confidence and enjoyment of the evaluation.

Players should come dressed in baseball attire, with protective cup and cleats. Players will be fielding, throwing and hitting as age appropriate.

Drafts for Minor divisions and up occur in the first week of February.

Girls softball, 50 / 70 and Junior baseball evaluations will happen in mid-February. Date TBD.

If you’ll be registering before your evaluation and are new to the league, please bring an original birth certificate and proof of your address (or school) within our league boundaries.
