Latest Covid News
May 31, 2021
As recently announced by the premier and Dr. Strang, sports will soon be allowed to resume with restrictions. We are currently working with NS Health, Baseball NS, and the Town and County of Antigonish to figure out what our return to play will look like. We hope to have an announcement out later this week with details for parents and players, so please stay tuned.
Registration remains open for all divisions. Registration will close on June 21. While some of our younger divisions are getting close to full we still need players in our oldest divisions (15U and 18U). Register today at: https://forms.gle/7gebVJ59pa45sKMg7. For the time being we are asking that people do not pay their registration fees, at least until we know how long this wave and the current lockdown will last.
Stay Safe and thanks for your patience!
