Step 1. Complete the Header Information

At the top of the page, enter:

Division,
Coach name,
Date of the evaluation,
Page number if using multiple pages.

Note that the baseball evaluation form uses a fixed layout and a five-point rating scale. Fill it out row by row, player by player, following the sections exactly as they appear on the form.

Step 2. Enter Player Identification Data

Move to the left side of the row and record the player’s basic information.

Write the player’s name, mark size (S, M, or L), and indicate throwing and batting preference. Do this before scoring anything else.

Step 3. Rate Fielding Skills

In the Fielding section, rate the infield and outfield skills on a scale of 1 to 5, as shown on the form. Evaluate the skills and abilities of the player, taking into account the specific aspects of the game that are relevant to the player's performance. Each line should contain only one number.

Here's a quick reminder! A score of 1 indicates very weak performance, while 5 indicates strong ability compared to other peers' performance during the same session.

Step 4. Score Throwing and Catching

In the Throw & Catch section:

Rate throwing mechanics, strength, accuracy, and overall ability,
If applicable, rate catching mechanics and overall catching skill.

Only score catcher-related fields if the player actually performs that role.

Step 5. Hitting Ability

Under the Hitting section, score mechanics, power, contact, and overall hitting performance. Use what you actually see during drills or live swings.

Numbers should reflect outcomes and form, not reputation or past seasons (tempting, but misleading).

Step 6. Pitching and Catcher Skills

In the Pitch & Catcher column, just fill in the roles the player attempted. Pitchers get rated on their mechanics, speed, and accuracy. Catchers can get points for their mechanics and arm strength.

Don't rate both unless the player really tries both positions.

Step 7. Record Foot Speed

Next, enter the base running performance in the foot speed fields. Record the times or relative results for home to first base and first base to third base.

Step 8. Add Comments

In the Comments column, you can write attitude, focus, hustle, and any standout strengths or concerns

Step 9. Repeat for Each Player

The same structure repeats multiple times on one page, so fill out each row independently.

	T im e	Ac t ivity

	5 min.	Opening remarks by All-Star manager and/or tryouts coach.
	0:05	Explain format of tryouts, how players will be evaluated, and
		importance of behavior, hustle and good attitude.
	10 min.	Warm up. Jog once around entire field, then warm-up by throwing
	0:15	to a partner.
	10 min.	Base Running skills. Lineup players at home plate. Time players
	0:25	on their ability to go from the batter’s box to 1B. Afterwards, have
		them run from 1B to 3B. Allow them to overrun 3B as you don’t
		want them to slide into 3B. Make sure players tag each base. Use a
		stopwatch to call out times.
	20 min.	Infield skills. Lineup players in outfield just behind the shortstop.
	0:45	Each player rotates through the positions starting with shortstop.
		Coach hits five balls to shortstop who fields and makes a throw to
		1B. Hit balls to left and right to evaluate range. Then hit one ball to
		2Bman who throws it to the shortstop who then throws to 1B for a
		double play. Players then rotate from SS to 2B to 1B to home.
	5 min.	Water break. Have players return to dugout for a quick break.
	25 min.	Outfield skills. Lineup players in deep outfield. If using a pitching
	1:15	machine to simulate flyballs, have four small cones setup in a
		square approximately 50 feet apart. Have the player start in the
		center of the square. The flyball should come right to him. He then
		rotates to each cone position and moves once the ball is “hit”. This
		will test his range and the ability to catch. After each ball the player
		throws the ball to 2B who throws it to 3B who throws it to the
		player at home. Players rotate from OF to 2B to 3B to home.
	5 min.	Water break. Have players return to dugout for a quick break.
	35 min.	Hitting skills. Have about 1/3 of the players in the dugout ready to
	1:55	hit. The other players field the batted balls. Rotate players as
		needed. Recommend using pitching machine for consistency unless
		several coaches with good pitching skills are available to throw
		“batting practice” balls to each player. Give each player 5 to 8 good
		pitches. Bunting first pitch is optional.
	5 min.	Thank You. Have manager thank all players for attending the
	2:00	tryouts. Let them know when a decision will be made regarding
		who makes the team. Let them know that anyone not interested in
		trying out as a pitcher or catcher may be dismissed.
	20 min.	Pitchers & Catchers. Any player that would like to be considered
	2:20	as a pitcher or catcher should tryout. Have pitchers throw
		approximately 5 pitches. Catchers should catch at least two pitchers.
