BHAA All-Star Selection Process However, completion of this form did not guarantee a player selection to an all-star team. This form merely informed our coaches which players and families were committed to be available for the entire tournament season, which runs through August 1. There also is a $39 uniform fee required for all-star play, and parents are asked to serve in volunteer roles during BHAA's tournament in late-July. All-star teams were selected from among nominated players by the coaches in that division. For instance, farm league coaches made nominations of players from their respective teams, reviewed which players submitted all-star commitment forms, and worked with their fellow coaches to field the best possible teams based on skill and sportsmanship. There was no tryout. Players were be selected by coaches based on regular-season performance and attitude. Tournament coaches, with support from league leadership, made final player selections. BHAA has fielded all-star teams in the following divisions/age groups:
Our baseball tournament teams will play in BHAA's tournament in late-July, as well as travel to two other tournaments. |
