Parents:
We wanted to inform you that Travel Baseball tryouts for next year’s teams will be held the week of June 12th at Rinzler Field.
The tryout will set rosters for Fall ’17, Spring ‘18 and Summer ‘18 teams.
We will use the same format as last year: one session per age group, on the field, as the Rec season is concluding so that all players are in “mid-season” form.
The following guidelines apply:
· Evaluations will be conducted by an outside 3rd party. The professional instructors at DiChiaro Baseball will administer the sessions and objectively evaluate each participant.
· Players should bring a baseball glove, helmet, bat, baseball pants, protective cup, t-shirt, baseball hat and cleats. No Woodcliff Lake travel apparel or hats should be worn.
· Parents are asked to drop their children off at the appropriate time and pick them up at the conclusion of the tryout, which will be closed to the public. Parents attempting to watch the session from the parking lot will be asked to vacate.
· No WCL Travel Coaches will be involved in the selection process.
· All DiChiaro Baseball decisions are final.
· The number of teams will be determined by amount of registrants deemed capable to play competitive travel baseball. That said, we do not expect to make “cuts” at the 8U and 9U level, though beginning at 10U that is a possibility.
· Parents will be notified of final rosters by the WCL Baseball Travel Coordinator on August 1st.
