ALL STAR SELECTION PROCESS:
Summer All Star Season is just around the corner. Because of USA Softball Guidelines, we are prevented from starting our All Star selection process before May1st. But we are allowed to explain to you how things will work as the process will start up very quickly beginning on May1st. Please read the following:
8U / 10U DIVISIONS
- On 5/1/23 at 12:01 a.m. Team Managers for 8U and 10U Divisions will receive a player nomination link. Each manager must click on the link and complete the form listing his nominees along with reasons why. We are asking for this link to be completed by 8 a.m. on 5/1/23. If managers are delayed, posting player nominations and notices will be delayed until nominations have been turned in.
- The morning of 5/1/23, 8U and 10U Division player nominations will be posted on the website. Those players who were nominated will be sent an email with a link to register for assessments. This registration process is mandatory for your player to be eligible to assess. If you are unable to do it that morning, we will have an iPad at the field for you to complete but please try to do it at home as there may be a wait for the iPad.
12U / 14U DIVISIONS
- On 4/15/23 Players in the 12U and 14U Divisions can begin filling out an intent to tryout form. Filling out this form does not guarantee your player making an all star team, it only confirms your players eligibility and intent to try out on the dates listed below. Allstar Intent to Tryout Form (Click Here)
- All 12U and 14U who filled out the intent to play form should show up to their tryout time.
PLAYER ASSESSMENT TIMES:
Player Assessments and Uniform Fittings will be at ABELIA SPORTS PARK. Parent meetings will occur prior to assessments. If you want specifics, this is the best time to get it.
**All players please arrive 45 mins prior to their tryout time to allow time to size for your uniform, sign in, and warm up.**
