Baseball NL has launched a new Step Up to the Plate program to help increase interest and participation in the sport across the province.
Minor Committee Chair with Baseball NL, Kristyn Coley says they put the program together to allow people interested in baseball get all the information they need.
Baseball has grown tremendously in the province in recent years, and Coley says they want to see it grow even further—especially ahead of the 2025 Canada Summer Games.
NL will be the first host of girl’s baseball across the country says Coley. They’ve also included information on their Challenger baseball program for players with diverse needs.
Baseball NL is also hoping to expand into new areas like Labrador, the west coast and central “and we will be reaching out to some local recreation programs in the coming months to set up some programming in those areas.”
