Skills Assessment

The Skills Assessment is required for all players in the Pigtail, Feather, Galaxy, Delta, Mustang, Bronco, Pony, and Colt Divisions.  Skills Assessment is not required for Shetland and Pinto players (teams are assembled by the Division Director).

The purpose of the Skills Assessment is to evaluate players skills so that we can:

  • ensure that the player is signed up for the appropriate division;
  • form balanced teams;
The Skills Assessment is NOT for the purpose of  "cutting" any players.

The Skills Assessment consists of each player doing a short timed run, hitting 5-7 balls pitched from a pitching machine, fielding 3-4 fly balls and making a throw to second base, and fielding 3-5 ground balls at shortstop and making a throw to first base. There is also an optional station where players throw 5-10 pitches to an adult catcher. The total Skills Assessment process takes about an hour. Please bring a bat, a  glove and wear appropriate baseball attire (No spikes, please). Unless the league informs you otherwise, you may assume that your child will play in the division that you request on your application. In some cases, based on the Skills Assessment results, safety considerations, or available roster openings, the League will call you to suggest an alternate placement for your child.
