1. A system for evaluating athletic performance, the system comprising:
a plurality of garments each configured to be removably coupled to an athlete's body during athletic performance, wherein each of the garments comprises a receptacle configured to receive a wearable sensor device therein, each receptacle including an aperture;
a plurality of wearable sensor devices each configured to be removably received within a respective garment receptacle during athletic performance, wherein each of the wearable sensor devices comprises:
a motion sensor;
a first proximity sensor comprising an optical time-of-flight sensor configured to be aligned with the receptacle aperture when the wearable sensor device is received within the receptacle such that the optical time-of-flight sensor faces outwardly from the athlete's body and can transmit and receive optical signals through the aperture to obtain proximity measurements;
a rechargeable power source;
a haptics module configured to provide haptic feedback to the athlete; and
a first wireless communications component configured to communicate with one or more external devices;

one or more stationary sensor devices configured to be coupled to reference objects adjacent to an athletic performance site, each of the one or more stationary sensor devices comprising:
a second proximity sensor configured to detect an athlete's body or athletic equipment within a field of view of the second proximity sensor; and
a second wireless communications component configured to communicate with one or more external devices; and

a computing device communicatively coupled to the plurality of wearable sensor devices and the one or more stationary sensor devices, the computing device configured to:
receive first sensor data from each of the wearable sensor devices;
receive second sensor data from the one or more stationary sensor devices; and
based on the first and second sensor data, determine at least one performance parameter.
