For the first time in several years, a softball program could be on its way to Dauphin. There will be a meeting on Monday, March 2, at 6:00 p.m. in the lobby at the Parkland Rec Complex.
The goal is to start the league with girls in the 12U age group, however, interested parents with girls older or younger than that are welcome to come to the meeting.
“We’re trying to figure out who’s interested and what it takes to play in a league in the Parkland, attend a few tournaments, and even go to the provincials,” said Phil Fafard. “We welcome anyone to come down and hopefully, we can go forward from there.”
Starting softball at a young age can very well create opportunities moving forward.
“Softball is a lifelong sport. There are several opportunities for elite players to play at the next level when it comes to colleges in Canada and United States as well.”
Speaking of softball, it will be played at the Manitoba Summer Games that are coming to Dauphin from August 9-15.
