Girls Baseball
Girls Baseball Program
 | In 2022 we successfully re-introduced dedicated Girls Baseball teams in the KBA. The momentum is growing for an all Girls baseball league in Ottawa with most Ottawa Little Leagues now offering Girls only teams. Ottawa West, East Nepean, South Ottawa, Orleans and Glebe Little League intend to form Girls-only teams for the 2023 season. In addition, the Director of Girls Baseball in the Outaouais has reached out and wants to arrange for exhibition games between their girls teams and ours in 2023. |
This is an exciting time for the growth of Girls Baseball in our city!

Description
The 2023 season will run from early May until the third week of July. Teams will typically have two practices per week from Monday through Friday and games on Sunday afternoons.
Several other Ottawa baseball associations plan to have girls teams this season including Ottawa West, East Nepean, South Ottawa, Orleans and the Glebe. We may also play exhibition games against girls teams from the Outaouais association.
If we don’t have enough players registered to form a Kanata team at a specific age level, we can work with other local associations to have players join one of their girls teams. Our goal is to get as many girls playing baseball as possible.
