Welcome to Mad River Girls Softball! We are looking forward to an exciting season of change! Last season we expanded our recreational program to include a travel division and this season we are looking to accommodate players in both a recreational and travel capacity. Recreational and travel players this season stretch from Willow Creek all the way to Garberville! With that said, we would like to remind you about the recreational and travel assessments scheduled for Sunday, March 4th at the Humboldt State University Fieldhouse. Players 10 and under are scheduled for a 9:30 assessment time. Players 12 and under are scheduled for a 10:30 assessment time and players 14 and under are scheduled for an 11:30 assessment time.We would like to stress the importance of player attendance at assessments for the evaluation of each player and the effective distribution of players to a recreational and/or travel team. On assessment day, player and team distribution will be evaluated based on geographics, skill, and age. For example, a player based on skill who qualifies for a 12u age bracket would be more appropriately placed and challenged at the 14u level. Evaluators at the assessments include three board members, Kelly Helms, Shanna McCracken, and Sarah Jones, all of which have played college softball and coached at either the recreational, travel, high school, and/or college levels. Other evaluators will include former softball players in ASA, high school, and college programs like Cari Killingsworth, Lilo Reith, and Heather Goodwin. Support personnel will also be on hand to assist with the logistics and operations of the assessments. If you have not yet signed up with Mad River Girls Softball, it’s not too late! Simply come at the appropriate time for your player's age and we will get you signed up and run thru the assessment!
