Spring Training Tryouts #2 This Saturday

Hi LPPLL families, a reminder that our second of three Spring Training tryouts is this Saturday, Jan. 29th. We had a great showing last weekend. We’ll also have another Gear Swap, so all families are welcome to come down to Dooley.

We sent an email earlier Tuesday to AAA families explaining that we are shortening each AAA session to 90 minutes and changing the start times of the second and third sessions of the day. AAA sessions will run from 9-10:30, 11-12:30 and 1-2:30.

Majors sessions will stay the same at 10-noon and 12:30-2:30. Majors players should show up at the same time they did last weekend.

We’ve had some common questions that we’d like to answer:

Are these tryouts mandatory? We are asking all families to try to make all three Saturdays to give our managers and coaches an opportunity to evaluate our players.

Can I switch times? Unfortunately, we have a lot of players and are not granting time slot change requests.

Where’s the Gear Swap? At the Snack Shack! Please bring any gear you’ve outgrown and feel free to take what you need.

Is the Snack Shack open? No, but rumor has it that Week 2 will feature some breakfast items.

When does my child start if they aren’t playing Majors or AAA? Our current estimate is AA could have a Spring Training session in mid-February if the weather holds. Rookies and T-Ball will not have Spring Training and will start practices in late February. Juniors families, we will have at least one team, but please sit tight as we figure out logistics.
