What is Canpitch?
Canpitch was created to introduce and develop the fundamental skills of windmill pitching to Canada’s children and youth. Canpitch Instructors in each province teach a nationally standardized curriculum with specific drills that are founded in Long Term Player Development (LTPD) principles and reflect an athlete-centered approach to learning. https://softball.ca/resources/canpitch
Canpitch programs in your area may run year-round or seasonal with group lessons often taking place once a week in 6-week blocks for 1 - 1.5 hours. For rural areas these clinics can take place over a weekend. To host a Canpitch Clinic or become an instructor please read below to find out more.
