PBF Baseball Evaluations

Mandatory baseball evaluations are December 3rd, 2011 at various times and locations based on your division. Please attend only your division's evaluation.

We do not evaluate Shetlands; all other registrants must attend. Evaluations are very important as they allow us to build balanced teams.  Evaluations are not used to cut players.  

The evaluations will be held under most conditions.  In the event of heavy rain, please check your email Saturday morning for updates from PBF. First-year players who have difficulty in evaluations for their division may be encouraged to play in a lower division. For more information about the divisions and expectations, , see http://piedmontbaseball.org/division_descriptions.html

Only Pinto players should come to the evaluation.  Due to space constraints, Shetland-aged players will not be allowed to "play up" to Pinto and should not attend the evaluation.

**To minimize congestion at Coaches Field on December 3rd, there will be no parking allowed in Coaches parking lot. We encourage Bronco and Pony players and parents to do one of three things to get to the evaluations:

  1. Carpool with other families and drop the players off at the field.
  2. Walk to Coaches Field.

Parents cannot remain at Coaches Field during the evaluations. (unless you buy a tree from the boy scout lot!)
