Evaluations

**IMPORTANTThese evaluations are NOT tryouts. This information is only used to assess a player's current skill lever and is a tool for the RCBA to assist with creating teams.
ALL PLAYERS MAKE A TEAM REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY ARE EVALUATE

Team Selection
When drafting teams, we take into account the nights of availability for each player, their evaluation results, and other activities they participate in. The RCBA does take player requests in this division - if your player has a friend they wish to play with, please email the requests to rcba@sasktel.net or add it directly onto your registration.  It may not be possible to fulfill all requests.

*The RCBA reserves the right to combine all the High School athletes into 1 division, depending on registration numbers.


*The RCBA does not accept zone requests - THIS IS A CITY WIDE PROGRAM, PLAYERS COULD BE ASSIGNED A PRACTICE FACILITY OUTSIDE THEIR ZONE*

Games

Scoring 
Scores are kept & displayed. If the point differential is more than 25pts, coaches have the option to discontinue showing the score. On the RCBA website, scores will ONLY be recorded up to a 25 point differential. This is to discourage teams from running up the score.
