9 through 12, not already on a
Major League team, MUST try out or provide a written excuse to the SNB
Board of Directors. Each player must attend at least 50% of the tryouts to be
eligible. We highly recommend that players attend both days.
However,
even though a player participates in evaluations, a parent can choose
to NOT have their son / daughter move up to the next level. This
can commonly occur for 9 & 10 year olds who do not want to play in
majors. Just make a board member aware at sign-ups or the day of
evaluations. If you have questions, please ask a member of the
board.
The primary goal is to make baseball as much fun possible
for each and every player by having players play at their appropriate
level based on current ability.
