A NON-PROFIT INTIATIVE DEDICATED TO EXPANDING ACCESS TO SOFTBALL—GLOBALLY.

Grow the Game is a global initiative committed to expanding access to softball and increasing participation at all levels. By providing opportunities, resources, and development pathways, we aim to make the sport more inclusive and accessible for athletes, coaches, and organizations across Canada. Through grassroots programs, mentorship, and community partnerships, we’re breaking down barriers and creating a stronger future for softball—one player, one team, and one community at a time.

what we’re all about

Grow the Game Canada is a bi-annual initiative that brings athletes, coaches, and umpires together to support the growth of softball in communities with limited access to resources. Participants travel to Uganda and other countries in Africa to work alongside local coaches and players, providing hands-on training, mentorship, and cross-continental support. In addition, equipment donations help supply teams with the gear they need to continue growing the sport.
