Topham Park is excited to announce a series of one hour Spring Training sessions over ten Sundays in February, March and April 2024. These training sessions will be held at the nearby NRS Institute located at 1400 O'Connor Dr, East York, ON M4B 2T8.
Our spring training will consist of ten one hour skills clinics with a focus on fundamentals and repetitions to help our players get ready for the beginning of the season. For our youngest players, we will focus on fun activities aimed at taking the fear out of trying a new sport and providing a basic introduction to softball fundamentals.
For players who are more familiar with softball, we will provide a review of the proper mechanics of hitting and fielding and give players the opportunity to practice each skill through a series of drills. In addition, depending on the age group and skill of the participants various team concepts may be introduced such as cut-off plays and tag outs.
Players from the East Toronto Women’s Fastpitch Association (ETWFA) will be helping to deliver these sessions, as well as coach and player volunteers from Topham Park.

At the first training session players/parents will be asked to sign a Concussion Code of Conduct if we do not have one on record already with your house league registration. Players will not be able to participate unless this document is signed.
Cost: $165 per player for all ten one hour sessions.
Equipment Required: Players must bring their own helmet and glove and wear clean indoor running shoes or turf shoes on the field (no cleats). Players may want to wear a jock/jill. Topham will provide bats and balls. Personal helmets must be approved by the league before use (this can be done at the clinic). Bring a water bottle.
*Note that personal bats are not permitted for games during the House League season so there is no need to buy a bat for this clinic or for house league.

Topham Park reserves the right to reschedule or cancel all or some of the spring training sessions if we do not have enough registrants or for any other reason (instructor illness, etc.).
