Due to the expected inclement weather this weekend (excessive rain on Saturday and below freezing temperatures on Sunday), we will be moving baseball evaluations to Sunday, March 20. Here is what you need to know:

 

Does this mean I need to sign-up again?

No. Your current evaluation time will not change. If you have already reserved a slot for this Saturday, that will be your time for next Saturday. You do not need to do anything.

 

What if I can’t make that time on March 20?

Below are the links to the SignUp Genius for each division. Feel free to log in and modify your time. If you can’t figure out how to do that, email Brendan Hermes (brendanhermes@gmail.com) to assist.

 

What if I have a conflict on March 20?

Please email eval.sombaseball@gmail.com and Brendan Hermes (brendanhermes@gmail.com) to let us know. We will work to arrange an alternate time.

 

I was going to be out of town this Saturday. Should I sign up for next Saturday now that the date has moved?

Yes! Please do!

 

Didn’t the league have a bad-weather contingency plan?

We did! But the best laid plans…we had reserved the SOMS gym. However, the school administration recently decided to no longer permit the use of the gym for any activities that uses a “hard ball.” This somewhat unexpected change in policy gives us no indoor contingency site to hold evaluations.

 

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause and we appreciate your understanding and flexibility. If you have any issues or questions, please email eval.sombaseball@gmail.com.

 

Below are the sign-up locations to register your Player for evaluations (please only use these if you need to change your time):

 

And another thing…

Summer travel tryouts are coming soon! All interested players should register on the South Orange website. Exact tryout dates and times are being revised and will be shared as soon as available. NOTE: this is not a firm commitment, and no registration fees will be required. Rather, this is to gauge interest as we start to prepare for our summer youth baseball season.
