Every player will need to create an account and select Springfield as your community club. The cost to participate is $175, which includes umpires at games for the entire season. Payment options include online credit card or e-transfer, but be sure to pre-register online first.
If your child was born in 2016 or 2017, they are eligible to join in on the fun of Grand Slam ball. This league, designed and sanctioned by Baseball Canada, is a fantastic opportunity for young players to develop their skills in preparation for U11 ball. Pitching is done with a machine or with coach pitchers, no score is kept, and all players bat every inning. Coaches are on the field to provide instruction, making Grand Slam a fun and educational experience for all involved.
For parents interested in coaching, we need your help! Please register through our online portal at:

Many volunteers are needed to organize and manage a Grand Slam team, so we appreciate all the support we can get.
The playing season kicks off in early May, with games taking place on Tuesday and Thursday nights at the Dugald Community Club. If you have any special requests for team assignments, be sure to communicate them during registration. While we can't guarantee all requests will be accommodated, we will do our best to make it happen.
Don't miss out on the Grand Slam Jamboree, a fun weekend event in May held at the Gateway Rec Centre as part of the regular league schedule. It's sure to be a highlight of the season for players and families alike.
So grab your glove, batting helmet, and running shoes, and get ready for a season of fun and growth with the Springfield Hawks Grand Slam team. We can't wait to see you on the field!
