Ottawa, Ont. – Softball Canada is pleased to announce the list of fifteen (15) athletes who have been named to the 2019 U17 Junior Men’s National Team. The roster has been determined by the coaching staff following a series of combines held across Canada earlier this year and the recently completed U16 Boys’ and U19 Men’s Canadian Championships.
 
Team Canada is scheduled to compete at the 2019 WBSC Americas U17 Men’s Softball Qualifier from November 1-10 in Guatemala City, Guatemala. The top four teams from that event will qualify for the 2020 WBSC Softball U18 Men’s Softball World Cup that will take place February 22 until March 1 in Palmerston, New Zealand.
 
Canada finished fourth at the previous WBSC Junior Men’s World Championship held in Prince Albert, Sask. in 2018. This will mark the first time a regional qualifier is held for teams to attend the World Cup, which will also see an age category change from U19 to U18.

The athletes who will represent Canada at the 2019 WBSC Americas U17 Men’s Softball Qualifier are:
