PLAYER ADVANCEMENT

Player Advancement

At SCLL, player development is a top priority. We aim to ensure players grow and gain confidence in the lower divisions, with a smooth transition to the next level.

It’s important to note that players don’t necessarily move up after just one season. Each player develops at their own pace. Moving a player too quickly can lead to frustration, increased injury risk, and possibly discourage them from returning.

By allowing players to stay in their age-appropriate division until they’re truly ready to advance, they’ll become better players and more coachable when they eventually reach the Majors and beyond.

PLAY-UP CONSIDERATION

Play-Up Consideration Policy

Stanwood-Camano Little League offers properly registered players the opportunity to be considered for placement in the next level of play, commonly referred to as "playing up."

Eligibility and Evaluation Criteria:

Play-up requests are subject to league discretion and are not guaranteed.
All candidates must undergo an on-field skills assessment conducted by the League.
The League will evaluate requests based on:
- Player skill level
- Age and safety considerations
- Roster availability at both the current and requested division levels

Additional Considerations:

It’s a common misconception that players should only spend one season in each division. In reality, player development varies. Advancing too early can lead to:

Frustration due to skill gaps
Increased risk of injury
Reduced enjoyment and long-term participation

Allowing a player to remain in their age-appropriate division until they are developmentally ready promotes stronger fundamentals and better long-term growth. These players are typically more confident, skilled, and coachable as they advance into upper divisions.

Please contact the Player Agent with any questions.
