CBA Families,

I would like to introduce myself as the new Premier Commissioner for Colleyville Baseball Association. My name is Shawn Dillon and I have three sons playing in this league. I am also proud to introduce Thomas Elkins as the Premier Director who will be assisting to create the very best baseball experience possible for our children within the community.

Within Recreational baseball, CBA offers two levels of play, a Premier division as well as Recreational. Premier is a more competitive level of baseball while Rec is primarily focused on skill development and foundational lessons. Both of these divisions provide equal play with the opportunity to experience multiple positions infield and outfield. Premier interlocks with neighboring associations and games are played in the form of double headers.

This season we are implementing a new process for the determination of kids that will have the opportunity to play on a premier team. We are implementing this new process for several reasons:

• To help CBA to know how many Premier Teams should be created within each age group
• Objectively evaluate the talent level within each age group
• Assist the Premier Coaches in grading talent and building successful teams

An objective tryout will be completed by the Player Development Center to provide an independent review of talent. There will be a final tryout in January. It is not necessary for kids to tryout multiple times, but kids are allowed to tryout multiple times in order to be sure they feel confident in their performance. If for any reason you are not able to attend one of these sessions, please reach to Shawn Dillon or Thomas Elkins.

We look forward to a successful and fun Spring 2023 baseball season. Please reach out if you have any questions to the above outlined process.

Best Regards,

Shawn Dillon

Premier Commissioner
