*4th graders also have the option of playing in the 9/10U – Grades 3rd/4th In House program

Communities that participate in the SW Community League include Edina, Eden Prairie, Chaska, Chanhassen, Carver, Jordan, Waconia, and Shakopee.  Not all the communities have a team at every level.

Practices start the week of April 15th – weather permitting.  We will have two practices per week for three weeks. Games start the week of May 6th and run through the week of July 8th.  We have one game and one practice a week for May and then 2 games for June for a total of 12 games.  Half of those games will be at home and the other will be away.  We try to have games/practices on Mondays through Thursdays avoiding weekends if possible. 

We have a yearend tourney for all age levels

The scheduling meeting is on April 11th and full schedules will be posted shortly after that date.

Depending on registration numbers, we may need to have an evaluation on April 13th.  The purpose of this evaluation is to try to create equal teams.

As part of your registration fee, you will receive a jersey and a cap.  You will need to purchase grey baseball pants and shoes.  You will also need a baseball glove, bat, and batting helmet.  We prefer the batting helmet to be red but other colors are ok. 

We will be having a baseball equipment swap meet on Saturday, March 23rd at the Shakopee High School Fieldhouse where there is a lot of good-condition used baseball equipment you can pick up for FREE.

The cost of playing community league baseball is $200.  We do have payment options available and there are scholarship options also available.

Evaluations

Community League evaluations are scheduled for Saturday, April 13th at West Middle School.

 The purpose of the evaluations is to get a sense of your son's baseball ability so that we can set up "equal" teams.  

 

Evaluations will be indoors in the West MS gym.  Please be dressed for baseball with clean gym shoes.  Bring your glove, bat, and helmet.  Evaluations consist of a brief assessment of your son's ability to catch, throw and hit.  We also hope to be able to assess his ability to pitch - we want everyone to try to give pitching a try. 

 

We will do evals alphabetically so depending on your last name, your son may be done in quickly so we ask parents to hang out.  Parents are not allowed to watch evaluations.

 

We encourage all players to be at evaluations but if you cannot attend, please send Shane Hofmann <shane.hofmann@edinarealtymortgage.com> an email letting him know an "honest" assessment of your son's abilities.  Again the goal is to set up equal teams so that all teams have an equal chance at success.
