All returning players are required to attend tryouts this year. 

 

If you have multiple kids trying out, please make sure to register EACH player that is trying out. Please arrive 15 minutes prior to the start of your tryout time. If evaluations should be cancelled due to weather, please check back here (on this page) for updated dates and times.  Tryouts will cost $25  this year and is a non-returnable fee.  Payment for tryouts will be online through our registration process, which will open soon. Players will not be allowed to try out if they have not paid the tryout fee.  If you plan on trying out, please make every effort to register online, we plan our evaluator's availability based on the confirmed number of players.  We have 5 sessions, each session will include different age groups.  Please make sure to sign up for the session that is for your 2024 age (see age explanation below).

 

Feel free to reach out to jbaclutch@woodchucks.com with any other further questions.  We look forward to seeing you at the 2024 tryouts!

What players can expect at Tryouts

Players will be evaluated and graded on the following skills: fielding ground balls, catching fly balls, throws from shortstop to first base, throws from the outfield to home plate, hitting, baserunning, and if a player is a pitcher or catcher, those skills as well.  The evaluation will be done by multiple coaches in the JBA organization.  All evaluation grades will be kept confidential and will only be shared with the coaching staff to determine overall try out results.  Please make sure that players are loose and have stretched or have thrown before their tryout. There will be designated areas available for players to warm up.

Tryout Times by Age Group

Your age group for the 2024 season is determined by the age cutoff date of April 30th, 2024.  So your age on that date will be your age for the 2024 season.

Example 1:  your birthday is March 14th and you turn 11 on that day.  Your age group for the 2024 season is 11U.
Example 2: your birthday is June 17th and you turn 11 on that day.  Your age group for the 2024 season is 10U.
