U23 Men’s National Team Combines
Presented By
Starting in July, Softball Canada will be holding a series of one day Combines (identification camps) across Canada. Athletes born between the years of 1998-2001 are invited to register to attend any of the Combines listed below. Athletes born in 2002 and 2003 may be able to participate but will need approval from Softball Canada before registering by contacting Mike Branchaud (mbranchaud@softball.ca).
The U23 Men’s National Team coaching staff will operate the Combines with the help of local National Team players and/or Guest Coaches. Each player will be evaluated on speed, throwing, hitting, defensive play and general softball game play.
The registration fee is $100 per player to attend a Combine. A Rawlings National Team camp shirt will be provided. A minimum of 10 athletes are needed to operate each Combine. The registration deadline will be 10 days prior to the start of each Combine. If there are not enough registrants, a full refund will be issued, or players are welcome to transfer to another location.
