The South Fraser Giants will be offering Midget AAA fall ball this year.  Fall ball will run through the months of September & October.  Separate winter training opportunities will be offered in the following months to those interested. The team will use Holly Park in Surrey as it’s homefield, this fall.  

This is a great opportunity for Midget aged kids to get quality coaching instruction & development opportunities.  The goal of fall ball is strictly player development.

There will be two practices a week & double headers games on the weekends.  The team will also be in a tournament, which will be available for a select number of players.  Players will also be introduced to a strength & conditioning program throughout the fall. 

We understand some athletes may be busy with other sports.  We welcome dual athletes & part time players for the fall season.  

The program will be run by Head Coach Tyler Lawson.  He will be joined by a team of assistant coaches.  More information on the coaching staff will be released closer to the fall season. 

Cost: $215

Players will receive two practice shirts & a hat with registration.

Newton Canadian Baseball Association and Surrey Canadian Baseball Association are pleased to announce the roster for our first-ever fully merged Surrey/Newton Mosquito AAA-Tier 2 Summer Ball team.  We had 30+ players try out for the team and there was great skill, effort and competitiveness on display for the 12 available roster spots.  Thanks to all who attended, and congratulations to the players that have made the team.  We hope all the players who were not chosen for this team will plan to attend tryouts for either the Mosquito AA or Mosquito A (U10) teams.  Watch the website for information about upcoming player assessments / tryouts for these two teams.

Both Newton and Surrey Canadian Minor Baseball Associations are pleased to announce that we will be assembling a merged 2019 13U AAA Pee Wee team for this upcoming summer season. Based on our evaluations of this spring and the past couple of seasons we are confident that this will be a highly competitive team.

Our first evaluation will take place this coming Monday, June 3 from 6-8 at Unwin Park, Pee Wee Diamond 4 (northwest corner of the park). Address is 13313 68 Ave, Surrey. 

Players from any neighbouring associations are welcome to attend, provided they meet the requirements set out in the 2019 BC Minor Baseball Rule Book. Please keep an eye on this website for further dates and details.

Parking lots are on 68 Ave as well as 134 St, but there’s also limited street parking near Kinvig Elementary on 70B (closest to the field). Players should bring their gear and be fully dressed. Catchers should also bring their gear.” 

Any questions or concerns, please let me know. 

Thanks!

Based upon the highly successful merge programs at Peewee and Bantam involving both Surrey Canadian Baseball Association and Newton Canadian Baseball Association, the two organizations are pleased to announce their intent to field 3 merged Mosquito teams for Summer Ball 2019.

There are approximately 80 registered Mosquito players from the two organizations, and from this group of players combined, teams will be selected via tryouts at all 3 levels for BC Minor Summer Ball play:

• AAA (Tier 2)
• AA
• A (U10 – born 2009 only)

Tryout dates to be determined

In the next week or so, coaches will be announced for these 3 teams and dates will be advertised for player assessments and try outs.  Watch for more information to come!

In the meantime feel free to speak with our Mosquito Division Coordinators: Tom Janovsky (Newton) or Jim Innes (Surrey).

Summer Ball FAQs

What is Summer Ball?

Summer Ball is an ‘All-Star’ program that is available in each division from Tadpole through Midget.  

When is Summer Ball season?

Summer Ball begins with assessments and tryouts in early-mid June, with games beginning the July 1 long weekend.  Mosquito Summer Ball season is quite intense and includes approximately 2 games per week throughout June, plus practices and tournament(s).  Teams that are successful in the June schedule of games (qualifiers) will qualify for Provincial Championships (August Long Weekend).  The Provincial Championships signify the end of the Summer Ball season.  

Who is eligible to play Summer Ball? 

All players who played in either Surrey Canadian or Newton Canadian programs in the Spring season are eligible to try out for the Summer Ball teams.

How are players selected?

The 3 Summer Ball teams will be determined by open tryouts.  After the tryouts, the division coordinators and coaches will evaluate the results and make the final determination as to which players will make the team or not.  Depending on how many kids try out, some unfortunately could not be selected for a team.

What are the Commitment Requirements?

Summer Ball requires a significant commitment.  Players need to commit to being available for practices, games and tournaments from the end of June through the August long weekend.  Rosters will be large enough to make it okay (possibly) to miss a week during the season, but not during Provincials when we will want all players available.  

Where are Provincials held?

Mosquito Summer Ball Provincials will be held in:

• AAA (Tier 2)        North Delta
• AA                          Oceanside
• A                             Kamloops
