Select Tryouts
Whitby Girls Softball Association has been fielding very competitive Select teams in all divisions for a number of years and the upcoming season will be no different.
Select softball is a program where teams representing their association play against teams from other towns. The games are on weekends with extra practices, travelling and expenses being involved.
All registered House League players from Mite to Midget are invited and urged to try out for a Select Team in their age group. It is a great way to play some competitive ball, meet teams from others areas surrounding the GTA and, most importantly, have FUN.

Coaching Clinic for U11, U13 and U15
Attention All Coaches, Prospective Coaches & Interested Parents!!!
Come to our Pre-Season Coaching Clinic
Sunday, April 27th from 9:00am to 3:30pm
Iroquois Park Sports Complex

The clinic will be a combination of both theory and practical, utilizing a classroom approach along with actual demonstrations of skills and drills on one of the pads at Iroquois.
The clinic is targeted to both new and returning coaches. We'll provide tips/suggestions for how to handle almost any situation you'll face. We strongly encourage all coaches to attend (even if you’ve attended in the past as we continue to refine the content of this clinic).
In addition to the instruction, the clinic will provide a great opportunity for you to ask questions as well as get to know some of the other coaches in your division.
Coffee/tea will be served on arrival, and we'll have a pizza lunch during the day.
Please confirm your attendance as soon as possible by contacting Stacy Novack at cHJlc2lkZW50QHdoaXRieWdpcmxzc29mdGJhbGwuY29t
