2013 PLAYER TRYOUTS / EVALUATIONS
Tryouts for AA, AAA and Majors will be Sun Jan 6 and Sat Jan 12. Players must attend either of these days.

AA thru Majors:
There is no guarantee that your child will be placed on a team in a specific division. If you have a 9yr old, for example, there is no guarantee that he or she will be selected for a AA team; this is not a reflection of your child's skill, but rather a reflection of the relative skill of other players trying out in the same division. 8s and 9s who are not drafted will be placed on a FarmB team. 10s will be drafted no lower than AA. 11s will be drafted no lower than AAA.

  • A PLAYER’S LEAGUE AGE IS HIS/HER AGE ON APRIL 30, 2013
  • Players 5-7 years old do not attend try-outs.
  • Players 8 or 9 year olds who wish to play Farm do not attend tryouts.
  • Players 8 years old who wish to play up to AA must attend tryouts.
  • All players 9-12 years old, including coaches' kids, are required to attend the try-outs/evaluations for their age group.
  • Tryouts are scheduled for two consecutive weekends (Sun 1/6/13 and Sat 1/12/13), and players must attend either session.
  • Tryouts will be at Montera Field - use the back entrance off Scout, NOT the front entrance.

    * Although it is not guaranteed that any positions will be available, any player league age 10 wishing to try out for Majors must attend the try-outs with 11-12 year old players.

    The try-outs/evaluations consist of: batting, fielding, throwing and running. Depending on the age group, players will be thrown or hit grounders and fly balls which they will field and throw back. In the hitting stage, pitched balls will be delivered to players from a coach or from a pitching machine. Players may also be asked to run the bases. Players should bring their glove and, if they have them, wear shoes with rubber/plastic cleats (soccer shoes are fine). No metal cleats are allowed for 9-12 year olds. Bats and helmets will be provided. It is recommended, but not required that male players wear cups for the try-outs/evaluations.

    The tryouts/evaluations will occur as scheduled. If rain makes the conditions unsafe, we will have moved indoors.

    Juniors:
    Tryouts will be sometime in February, and players must attend to be drafted.

    Seniors:
    Tryouts will be scheduled for early April; Please register and we will contact you with details.
