The WYBSL conducts two (2) types of assessments:
SKILL ASSESSMENTS - are only conducted for certain leagues:
- Blue Hat Softball: these assessments help league staff balance team selection.
- Green/Red Hat Softball: assessments are used for coaches to draft teams.
- Green/Red/Blue/Black Baseball: assessments are used for coaches to draft teams.
- Players who cannot attend their skill assessment are assigned to teams using a “blind draw” or “age and alphabet” assignment or by Staff. Skill assessments are not mandatory, but highly encouraged in order to balance team formation.
-
PLEASE NOTE: if a player was in one of the above leagues LAST SPRING and would like to return to the same team, they do NOT have to attend assessments and will be returned to that team. Under the same circumstances, if a player would like to play on a different team, they should attend assessments.
PLAY-UP ASSESSMENTS - are conducted for players wishing to "play-up" to the next older age league. If a player has registered and requested to play-up, and did not play in the older age league last fall or spring, they must attend a play-up assessment.
Please check the WYBSL Weather Hotline (614-523-6220) for any updates on prior to heading to the fields. The hotline will be updated by 7:30AM on Saturday. If necessary, the first make-up date will be Sunday, April 10 with times 3 hours later than published. If Sunday, April 10 is postponed, the next make-up will be Saturday, April 16.
