2nd Graders may try out at evaluations and that evaluation will determine whether they play in the Junior League, or spend another year in the Horizon League improving their baseball skills (Money will not be refunded if it is determined your child will play in the Horizon League after evaluations due to cost associated)
Kids in 5th grade may play Junior League if parents believe their child's skills are still developing and would better match those in 3rd and 4th grade. Child’s evaluation score would be a deciding factor on this occasion.

Evaluations

Our annual boys’ evaluations will be held March 2 nd and 9 th in the PHS Multipurpose
Facility. Each year we hold a skill evaluation to understand the individual players
capabilities. These evaluations are used to balance teams as best as possible for our
Junior League and traveling leagues. We understand that time conflicts arise, please
have your boys attend only one of the evaluation dates. Only one evaluation date is
necessary, prior to this year we have encouraged attending both dates that has
changed. If neither of the evaluation dates work, we will schedule a make-up date at
another time.
