Spring 2022 Evaluation Schedule Annual Evaluations for the 2022 Hopkinton Little League (HLL) season will be held September 24-26.
***Please read this note in its entirety as it addresses common questions about evaluations.***
HLL conducts evaluations to ensure we place children in the appropriate league and create balanced teams based on their abilities. Every child who wants to play baseball or softball will be placed on a team. Safety is always our primary concern!
All baseball players born on or before 8/31/14 and softball players born on or before 12/31/12 must attend an evaluation, as detailed below.
Girls born after 12/31/12 may attend the 10U softball tryout if they would like to be considered for 10U softball. If they do not want to be considered for 10U, they do not need to attend. Girls born in 2011 who wish to be considered for 12U softball should indicate that when checking in at evaluations.
Baseball players born after 8/31/14 do not need to attend.
Please check the date of birth ranges below to determine your child's evaluation time slot to ensure you come at the correct time. Your child needs to attend one time slot only.
Preregistration is NOT required for evaluations. Just show up at the appropriate time and sign in at the registration table near the Dog House.
Each evaluation takes no more than 20 minutes. Players cycle through 4 stations: hitting, infielding, outfielding and pitching. Each player must bring their own glove. There will be bats and helmets available for those that don't have them.
These evaluations are managed by independent evaluators. The results from these sessions are used in conjunction with coach evaluations made at the end of the prior season.
Attending evaluations does NOT mean you are registered for the spring season. Online registration will open later in the fall. League placements will be announced in February/March.
