2022 Spring Softball Assessments

Assessment Info

Below are the dates and times for spring assessments. Everyone in 8U-14U will assess. Players returning to their teams that do not assess will count as a first round draft pick for their team. Free agents that do not assess will enter a blind draft that will be conducted after the assessment-based draft. Assessments are what we use to keep teams balanced, so it's imperative that we assess as many players as possible.

Note: if you cannot make the day/time scheduled for your division, you can attend during a different division's assessment. Just let us know. We will send out an email to registered participants to which you can respond.

Experienced pitchers (10U - 14U) will be expected to remain after assessments to be evaluated as a pitcher, as we try to ensure that pitching talent is evenly distributed. By experienced, we mean girls that have a moderate amount of game experience and/or lessons. If you are new and would like to try pitching, you can make that request to your coach once you are on a team.

Lastly, special requests in 8U-12U are not guaranteed. They will be noted during the draft and we will try to accommodate as many as possible, but our primary focus will be on balancing rosters.

• 8U: Saturday, January 29, 10:00 am
• 10U: Saturday, January 29, 12:45 pm
• 12U/14U: Sunday, January 30, 1:00 pm

Please arrive at least 15 minutes early to warm up. Information on where to report, warm up, etc. will be sent out closer to assessments.
