CANADA DAY CLASSIC

The Webber Wildcats are excited to announce the return of their Premier Showcase for High School baseball players and the addition of a 15U AA division to the same weekend! The Canada Day Invitational will run June 27 – July 1, as the Webber Wildcats Prep, Varsity and 15U AA programs will play host to 21 other teams from across Alberta, B.C., and Saskatchewan. This year is already shaping up to be a repeat of one of the top showcases of youth baseball talent, featuring several athletes who have already committed to NCAA, NJCAA, NAIA, and CCBC schools to continue their athletic careers. With the addition of our 15U division this year, we also have a fantastic opportunity to help younger players compete alongside these tremendous athletes and envision what their path in baseball will be! As hosts, the Wildcats are excited to be able to share a taste of what summer in Calgary has to offer. From Home Run Derbeys to player awards, and silent auctions, players and spectators alike will have plenty to be excited about as they compete to be recognized as one of the top programs in the country.
