Players are assessed on the five fundamental skills of baseball by rotating through different skill-assessment stations. This is not a tryout, everyone makes a team and besides the 9u Elite, 11u/13u Tier 1 teams, there is no tiering in House Baseball. This assessment helps our directors create as even as teams as possible for league play.
Your player will need:
-Cleats or running shoes
-Baseball helmet and glove
-Athletic protector
-White baseball pants, black belt, black socks.
-If you haven't mailed or pre-paid, your volunteer and jersey deposit cheques.
Please print the Volunteer and Jersey Deposit Form and submit it with two deposit cheques - a $150 Volunteer Deposit and $60 Jersey* Deposit
*The jersey deposit is only required for Rep and 11U-18U House Teams. Rally cap and Rookie players may keep their jerseys at the end of the season.
Who is House Assessments for?
- 9U elite tryouts
- 11U-18U House players, including those trying out for 11U/13U Tier 1
*5U Blast Ball, 7U Rally Cap and 9U House do NOT attend assessments.
What is the purpose of House Assessments?
House Assessments serve two key purposes:
How are teams formed?
- Teams are formed based on skill distribution, coach availability, and reciprocal friend requests.
- Your director will take 2-3 weeks to finalise teams. You will hear by the end of April which team you've been placed on.
Reminders:
- Besides the 9u Elite, 11u/13u Tier 1 teams, there is no tiering in House Baseball.
- Assessments help our directors create as much parity as possible within the division.
- Our goal is to create evenly skilled teams that enable stronger players to be leaders and models for those less skilled players.
- We also take into account the distribution of coach volunteers and one reciprocal friend request.
