Kerrisdale Little League Pre-Season Assessments
Important: KLL 2010 Mandatory Pre-season Assessment Information for
all 2001-born and older KLL Players wishing to play Minor A and Majors
divisions:
This year, due to the Olympics in February and
the many different school spring breaks, KLL is holding its assessments
early to ensure we don't miss anyone.
Before starting the season KLL must evaluate ALL new and returning players wanting to play in Minor A and Majors so they can be drafted onto teams in their respective divisions. Only players wishing to play Minor A and Majors need to evaluate.
If you're unsure if your child needs to assess, please directly contact
your division coordinator under Contacts on this site. These
assessments help us to place your child appropriately. Please bring
your player dressed in suitable clothing and don’t forget required
batting helmet and baseball glove.
Please arrive
10 minutes before your assigned time slot to check in. Thank you for
your cooperation and understanding.

Pre-Season Assessments: what to expect
Independent assessors from Home Field Academy will run the stations and rank the players in the following areas:
- Pitching
- Throwing and Fielding (catching, but not fly balls)
- Batting, with bunting added for the Majors players
KLL Minor A and Majors coaches will observe.
For Minor B players hoping to move up to Minor A, these assessments are required. For parents and players new to the assessment process, please be assured that assessments are not try-outs. Once all the players have been accessed, the assessors submit the players' scores to the League, which will then use the scores to determine draft position, suitability of players for respective divisions, and team balancing. Please see age grid and descriptions of each division if further information is needed to determine the best division for your child based on age, years played, and ability. Any questions, please feel free to contact your division coordinator under Contacts.
