Softball Evaluations

Assessments will be held at Comstock Park High School on March 7, 2026 . It is imperative that every player in the Minors through Majors come for an evaluation. Assessments allow us to grade each player on their abilities and rank them appropriately for the drafting process. The drafting process allows us to create balanced teams.

Players will be evaluated at 5 different stations:
Infield
Outfield
Hitting
Pitching
Running

Players will be placed in groups by age and will advance through each station together. A player should arrive on time for their slot. We anticipate it taking no more than 40 minutes to sign in and run through all 5 stations. Players should bring a glove. Bats and helmets will be available for use, or a player can bring their own equipment. NO CLEATS, tennis shoes only, please!

There will be no make-up date for Evaluations. It takes a lot of money, time and effort, and volunteers to put this on. If your child is unable to attend, no need to let us know. Any player that we do not have numbers for will be a hat draw on draft night.

Any questions should be directed to [email protected]

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS>>>

When and where are Evaluations?

Evals will be held on March 7 at Comstock Park High School.

 

Does my child really need to attend?
Evaluations let us know where your child falls within his/her age group. This allows our coaches to draft balanced, competitive teams! We encourage every player to attend this event! We will need many volunteers to run this event. Are you coaching a team? This is a great opportunity to volunteer and scout the talent you’ll be drafting!

What if we cannot make Evals? Is there a make-up date?

There will be no make-up date for Evaluations.  If your child is unable to attend, no need to let us know. Any player that we do not have numbers for will be a hat draw on draft night

What happens at Evaluations?

Once a player is signed in, they will proceed to the warm-up area for 5-10 minutes. We’ll be running everyone through in groups. Each player will run through drills in the following categories: running, hitting, pitching, infield and outfield. Each player will be assessed on their skills so we can rank them within their age group for division drafts.

How long will it take for my child to finish his/her evaluation from start to finish?

Please plan on 1 hour

What do we need to bring to Evals?

Bring a glove and water bottle. Your child can use their own helmet and bat, or we will have some available for use. Please wear tennis shoes, not cleats!

Do you need volunteers?

We will be looking for MANY volunteers to make this event a success. If you are a coach this season, or considering coaching this season, this is a great opportunity to help us
