Spring 2026 Player Evaluations
Please read below for important information and the schedule for our mandatory player assessments on Saturday, January 31.
- Evaluating players before the draft helps us attempt to create balanced teams across each age level. Northwest Softball does not have A, B, C skill level teams.
- ALL 8U, 10U, and 12U players must attend an evaluation, including coaches' kids. There are no evaluations for 6U.
- All players interested in pitching and/or catching need to attend the additional pitching/catching assessment, regardless of experience.
- Make up assessments will take place on Sunday, February 1 from 1:00 - 3:30 pm at the NWS field (schedule at the bottom of this page).
- 14U player volunteers are welcome and appreciated — we will sign off on volunteer hours if you need them for your school or service organization.
- Be sure to bring a glove. We will have bats, helmets, and faceguards available for those who need to borrow.
- Assessments take place at D-BAT Cedar Park: 12617 Ridgeline Bldg. B, Cedar Park, TX, 78613. See field location.
Any questions can be emailed to info@nwsoftball.org.
