Teamwork, skill development and physical fitness. Quickball grabs the attention of young people and lets them experience the most rewarding aspects of life on the diamond!
Does the Rookie League have Coach Pitch or Kid Pitch?
The Rookie League has a combination of both kid pitch and coach pitch. The first 2 innings are pitched by the players followed by 4 innings of coach pitch. During the first 2 innings the player will pitch up to 8 pitches per batter. If the batter does not strike out or hit within those 8 pitches, the coach will take over pitching until a hit or strike out occurs.
What should we expect at player evaluations?
Why do we have evaluations? Evaluations are not tryouts. The evaluations are used to rank players by skill levels to ensure a fair draft process and divide teams as evenly as possible.
- Travel Players & Majors players need not to attend
- Kids will be evaluated on:
- Throwing
- Hitting off a T
- Catching flyballs
- Catching on the line
- Fielding Ground Balls
- Prepare to be outside meeting on Field 1, but could be moved indoors due to weather
- Rookies 6pm / Minors 7:15
