ZLL Player Evaluation

The schedule for player evaluations is now available for softball divisions (Major, Minor) and baseball divisions (Major, Minor AAA, Minor AA). These divisions included plays age 9-12 according to Little League age determination guidelines. Evalution dates for other ages will be posted soon. ALL players are required to attend an evaluation, as this information is essential for the team drafts. Team drafts will occur in late February.

Players should wear athletic attire and bring a baseball/softball glove. A bat is optional, but is allowed if a player wants to use a personal bat. The evaluation consists of several skill drills featuring hitting, pitching, fielding and base running. The evaluation lasts about 5-10 minutes, but expect to wait in line. If you applied to be a Manager in these divisions for the 2010 season, you will be notified following the ZLL Board Meeting on January 31. Managers are expected to attend the player evaluation for their division.
