Refer to our League Age Chart for your player's league age.

All players League Age 9 and above (AA division through Junior division) must attend evaluations. If a player does not attend evaluations, he or she will only be able to play in the division he or she played during the previous Spring Season.

Any player who is League Age 8 and would like to be considered to play in AA Division must submit a request to our NWLL Player Agent at least a week before Upper Division Evaluations.

Why are player evaluations conducted?

Ensures that each participant is playing in a division according to their skill level.
Helps to keep teams balanced in terms of players and their abilities.
Player skill levels are used by Managers and League Officials to make informed decisions while forming teams.

Player Evaluations will be scheduled for the first weekend in January 2026.

Northwood Little League's goal is to balance all teams in each competitive division so that at the start of the season, every team has a fair chance at winning their respective divisions' championship.

Team Managers will conduct their evaluations based on observed player skills, and may group players with similar experience. If you have specific concerns about your child’s safety or skill level, compared with their peers, please contact the NWLL Player Agent.
