Skills Evaluations
Fort Hunt Little League uses the "Skills Evaluation" as a means to assess baseball skills. Together with age and playing experience, the evaluation assists in determining the appropriate league level for players and helps to ensure competitively balanced teams. Participation in one of the two Skills Evaluation sessions is required for players intending to play league levels AA and higher, for which “drafts" are conducted in late February/early March to establish final team rosters.
Skills Evaluation sessions are scheduled for Sunday February 12th and Sunday February 26th.
Refunds
FHYAA requires that a $25 administration fee be charged for all refunds. Total amount of refund is determined on a case by case basis.
