FAQS:
I am a current player, but I have a game/practice on my designated tryout night. What should I do?
Current players are welcome to attend the other night if they have a game/practice conflict.
How do I know which age group to tryout for?
Please use the USSSA age calculator to determine your age group. USSSA uses a May 1st cutoff date, so kids with summer birthdays may be able to play multiple age groups. For example, a child in 3rd grade generally plays 9U. But a child in 3rd grade with a birthday after May 1st could play 8U or 9U. Let us know which age group you are interested in when you sign in at tryouts.
What if I cannot attend either tryout day?
Please email prairiehawksbaseballclub@gmail.com and let us know you cannot attend to discuss potential makeup options.
What is the tryout fee?
There is a $150 tryout fee. This fee will be refunded if your child is not offered a place on a team. If an offer is made, the tryout fee will go towards the yearly dues. Tryout fees are nonrefundable if an offer is declined.
What are the yearly club dues?
Club dues are $400. This includes uniforms, field usage, and league fees.
How many tournaments are played and how much will we travel?
This really depends on the team. Some teams will play 2-3 tournaments, some 8-10+. Many tournaments are local. Tournament fees are not included in club dues, but many teams offset these costs with fundraising.
How are teams determined?
Team placement for current PHBC players is based on player evaluations, stats, and tryout scores. For new players, tryout scores determine placement. If you are attending PHBC tryouts and have played for another club, you are welcome to submit player stats.
