HOUSE 'C' - U11-U20

The House program, also known as the ‘C’ program, offers a fantastic platform for athletes who enjoy both the competitive and social aspects of softball. The program focuses on further developing fundamental skills through positive instruction and encouragement, making it ideal for girls who are eager to learn and have fun without the pressures of elite-level competition.
​
While the practice and game schedules are less intense compared to the rep program, the experience remains equally positive and rewarding. Athletes in this program can still enjoy the thrill of competition, but with an emphasis on skill-building and teamwork in a supportive, less stressful environment.
U11
At the U11 level, softball begins to feel more like the real game while still keeping fun at the center. At this level, players start experiencing games with umpires, learning new rules, and developing pitching for the first time.
​
Each game night is structured with a modified game that lets players apply what they’ve learned in practice. Pitching is shared between coaches and players, giving kids a supportive introduction to the role. Games will be played in both Chilliwack and Abbotsford. U11 is a great step toward independence and confidence on the field.
