12. Can I request to be on a specific coach or player’s team?

For TB4, TB5 and Young Bucks: During the registration process there is a field for a request for a coach and for 1 teammate. Parents are encouraged to make their requests known, but with the understanding that not all requests will be able to be honored due to the overwhelming number of requests that are received. If your child will be playing in the Rookie through Majors leagues, please know that these teams are determined by a “draft” and therefore coach and teammate requests are not available.

13. What are tryouts?

Tryouts are player evaluations that are held prior to the player draft. Every player in the Rookie, A, AA, AAA & Major Leagues are required to attend the evaluation. Players will be evaluated on general baseball skills: Hitting, Base Running, Infield and Outfield. Additional Pitcher and Catcher evaluations will be held for the AA and above leagues. Every player will be assigned to a team via a draft process in the weeks after the tryouts. 

14. For the leagues with tryouts, is my child guaranteed to make a team?
For Rookie - AAA Leagues, the tryouts are strictly player evaluations so that the coaches can draft teams accordingly.  All players who attend try-outs for these leagues will make a team.

For Majors, players are evaluated during tryouts by the coaches. Our majors league has limited spots so not everyone who trys out for Majors is drafted to a Majors team. All possible Majors players not drafted to a Majors team have the option to be drafted to a AAA team for the spring season. 

15. When are tryouts for Spring 2027?

Please see try outs tab HERE
*Dates are subject to change due to weather

16. What are tryout numbers?
Tryout numbers are assigned to players based on their age group and date of birth. The tryouts will be held starting with the oldest players in each age group and continuing in birth date order through the youngest players in each league. You will receive notification on number assignments the week before tryouts.

17. What if I cannot come during my assigned time slot?
Please try to come as close as possible to your assigned time, but we understand that basketball and other winter sport conflicts may occur. 11/12 year old players, who are trying out for a Majors team, must attend tryouts in order to be eligible for the Majors Draft. 11/12 yr. old players missing tryouts will be assigned to the AAA League for draft. For AAA through Rookie, a player missing tryouts will be placed in the draft and their previous season information will be used to evaluate the player.

18. How are players assigned to a team?
Player drafts are held after tryouts for all leagues from Rookie thru Majors. Teams in the younger age groups (TB4 / TB5 / 6YB) are assigned to teams with an effort made to take into account special requests from parents, even though due to sheer volume all requests cannot be met.

19. What league will my child be in for the 2027 Spring Baseball season?
Please refer to the "League Age Chart' page under the eligibility tab.

20. Can my child play in a different league than they qualify for?  
Buckhead Baseball strongly discourages children from playing either up or down into a different league.  Please see additional information under the eligibility tab.

21. Does my 11 or 12 year-old have to play in Majors?

All 11 & 12 year old players are eligible to tryout for Majors, but they do not have to tryout. Parents may request for the player to be assigned to the AAA League rather than Majors by contacting the Registrar @ registrar@buckheadbaseball.com

22. Do all 11 & 12 year-olds that desire to play Majors get assigned to Majors teams?

No. All 11 & 12 year old players are eligible to tryout for Majors, but not all are drafted to a Majors team. All possible Majors players not drafted to a Majors team will be drafted to a AAA team for the Spring season. Players who are not drafted onto a majors team and elect not to play AAA will receive a refund.
