CAN

Softball Canada is administered by an eight-member Board of Directors elected by the country's 13 Provincial and Territorial Associations, and is supported by eight staff members working in the National Office. Softball Canada's Coach and Umpire Development programs are recognized as worldwide leaders in the sport of softball, and all four of Canada's National Teams (Junior and Senior, Men and Women) are perennial medal threats in all international competitions. With funding annually provided by Sport Canada, membership fees, sales and sponsorship, Softball Canada develops new programming to target various segments of its membership, including the very successful Learn to Play (for children aged 5-10 years old) and CANpitch Programs. The Long Term Player Development Guide for Softball in Canada serves as Softball Canada's framework for decision-making.
