2018 Pre-Season Skills Assessments

nashie nash Assessments

We will be holding pre-season skills assessments as follows:

Indoors in the gymnasium at Quadra Elementary (3031 Quadra Street at Finlayson):

Outoors at Jerry Hale Field (Cook & Hillside):

If your young player is between the ages of 8 and 12, or if they are hoping to play up (e.g. 6-year-old hoping to play Mini Minors rather than Tee-ball), please bring them and a glove to at least one of the assessments. It’s critical that we know the current skill level of all children in order to place them on the team best suited to their abilities to ensure that everyone has a good time.

If you have not already done so, you may register in person for the 2018 regular season at the assessments.
