PLAYER 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.
