2026 Evaluations will be held February 14th & 15th
What are evaluations?
Evaluations are held each spring to quickly evaluate kids on their basic baseball and softball abilities. Children will hit, run, throw, catch, field groundballs/flyballs and pitch if needed. This helps us in balancing the teams through a draft process. Equal teams provide the best experience for children of all ability levels.
What happens if I can’t attend evaluations?
We understand that there are times when your child cannot make evaluations due to schedule conflicts. We highly encourage all children to attend evaluations to help the league maintain equal teams. If you cannot make it at the specific time of your last name, please come anytime during your division’s time. If you cannot make it during the entire division’s time, see below for make-up opportunities. If your child misses evaluations, they will still be placed on a team but may be subject to random placement.
What should my child wear/bring?
Please wear appropriate athletic attire. No cleats allowed. Bring glove, helmet, and bat (if you have one). For softball, we encourage you to wear your fielder’s mask. If you are a catcher and have your own gear, feel free to bring it.
Where are evaluations?
Evaluations will be held at Airpark Kids Zone, 11169 Air Park Rd, Ashland, VA 23005.
When are evaluations?
See below, times are broken out between division and last name. We estimate your child will be in the facility roughly 45 minutes (possibly up to an hour if a pitcher and/or catcher). Please arrive at the time listed for your last name to help us keep a limited number of children inside the facility at any one time. If you can’t make it at the time of your last name, please show up anytime during your division’s scheduled time.
What happens if I can’t make it during my division’s scheduled time?
If you cannot make it during your division’s scheduled time, we will offer 2 make-up sessions:
Saturday from 7-8 PM
Sunday from 5-6 PM
Can parents watch evaluations?
Space is limited inside the facility. We ask that only one parent accompany the child to the tryouts.
Tee Ball, Beginner Coach Pitch BB & SB, Intermediate Coach Pitch, 50/70 and Seniors BB & SB will not have evaluations.
