COVID Restrictions & Considerations
While we will work hard to accommodate as many players as possible to learn and grow and be a part of this great game, due to COVID and other restrictions (school field availability, volunteer coaches), we may be limited on the number of teams we are able to accommodate. Therefore, we may not be able to keep every player who registers and goes through the evaluation process.
Players and coaches may be required to wear masks during practice and/or games. There may be temperature checks required, and spectator limitations may apply. We will follow the state and county guidelines for safety considerations. If you are unwilling to comply with any COVID requirements, please do not register.
Season Cancellation & Refunds
If we must cancel the 2021 JBO season, we will issue refunds minus the cost of uniforms. For anyone who evaluates and does not make a team, we will issue a full refund.
Evaluation Requirements
Evaluations are required for Minor, Junior and Senior levels only. However, evaluations do not guarantee a spot on a team. If you are unable or choose to not attend an evaluation date, there is a chance your child may not be able to play. We will try to accommodate as many players as possible.
Evaluation Logistics (For Grades 3-8 only)
Evaluations will be at the Silverton Middle School, please note the location change from prior years. Evaluation dates are Sunday, March 7th and Saturday, March 13th, and the schedule for each age group is as follows:
Next Date: Saturday March 13
Minor(Grades 3 &4): Drop off 8:45am - 9:00am
Pick-up 10:15am - 10:30am
Junior(Grades 5 & 6): Drop off 10:15am - 10:30am
Pick-up 11:30am - 11:45am
Senior (Grades 7 & 8): Drop off 11:30am-11:45am
Pick-up 12:30pm - 12:45pm
Players need to attend at least one evaluation date. They are welcome to attend both if desired; we’ll take their best score. Evaluations are for the Minor, Junior and Senior levels only.
Evaluations at Silverton Middle School this year will require the following protocol:
- If your player has any symptoms (fever, cough) or has recently been exposed to someone with Covid, please stay home. Email us if your player can’t make the evaluations due to illness.
- All players are required to wear a mask.
- Please bring your own baseball gear if you have it (bat, helmet, glove).
- If you don’t have gear, that’s okay. We will have a process to supply sanitized helmets, bats, gloves if needed.
- Wear gym shoes and it’s okay to bring turf shoes if you have them.
- Please drop off your child in front of the Silverton Middle School gym (along James street) during the designated drop off time. You will pick up your child approximately 90 minutes after drop off. Pick-up will be behind the the middle school in front of the football field. PLEASE STAY IN YOUR CAR AT PICK UP. We will have volunteers to direct traffic and ensure kids get back to their parents.
- No parents allowed to observe the evaluations
