Soft Ball

Soft Ball is an awesome sport giving players the opportunity to build confidence and have fun while being part of a team. It also provides players the chance to shine individually while at the same time encourage and celebrate their teammates - all while having loads of fun!  There is cheering, singing and dancing all while playing a sport that builds confidence and friendships.

What is Soft Ball? While similar to baseball, soft ball has  the ‘windmill’ style pitches and the players use a larger, yellow ball.

Each player will get a Crushers cap to keep and a jersey to wear (to be returned at end of season). They will require a glove, a batting helmet, a protective cup/jill, running shoes (or molded baseball cleats). Catchers gear and bats are provided.

Uniforms are necessary and each player will need to have:

• **NEW for 2024** navy baseball pants
• navy socks
• navy belt

Following Softball Alberta guidelines and programs as well as CanPitch, coaches will schedule team practices. Games are played on Tuesday/Thursday or Monday/Wednesday, with occasional games on weekends. Extra season (additional fees & fundraising) "AllStar" team to play in Provincials mid June and July.
