What is Skills Day?

Skills Day is a chance for spring head coaches in Instructional League (ages 6-8), Minor League (ages 8-10) and Little League (ages 10-12) to get an understanding of the breadth of skill sets of the youth athletes signed up to play spring baseball. 

Why do we do it?

Our goal as an organization is to have a variety of skill sets on each team which allows for competitive play throughout the in-house season. 

What are the “skills”?

Each skills day session consists of running, agility, hitting, throwing/pitching and fielding. 

Is it a tryout?

No, this is not a tryout, this is a skills assessment. Your player is already registered to participate in the spring in-house season so their spot on a team is guaranteed! 

Where/When?

Skills Day is typically held in late February/early March at Avonworth High School/Middle School. Time options and additional details are communicated in February. 

Do parents stay?

Parents will drop their player(s) off and wait in the cafeteria while their player goes through the various drills. Volunteers will move the players through the drills.
