The Season Opening Event is held to celebrate the commencement of the 2016 Toronto Playgrounds House League Baseball Season at Christie Pits, Bickford Park and Art Eggleton Park.

Here is a tentative itinerary for the star studded event:

  • Pitching clinic for players in our Mosquito and Peewee Divisions.
  • Sliding clinic for players in our Mosquito and Peewee Divisions.
  • Author Joyce Grant will be on hand to officially launch her new children’s baseball book entitled ‘Tagged Out’. The book is great for kids who love baseball but don’t love reading. There’s lots of real-life baseball action–and best of all, it’s set in Toronto’s own Christie Pits.
  • In addition, there will an opportunity for all attendees at the event to participate in a free prize draw for copies of ‘Tagged Out’.
  • A special dignitary from our community will throw out the ceremonial first pitch at Dominico Field at Christie Pits to kick start the 2016 TP House League Baseball Season.

A schedule for the Season Opening Events will be posted when its finalized. Please note that events are subject to change.

ALL participating TP players attending the Season Opening Event are encouraged to wear their uniforms so they can partake in a group photo that will be taken at Dominico Field (a.k.a. Diamond 1).

In addition, the TP Baseball BBQ Zone will be grillin’ and chillin’ at Christie Pits from 10:00 a.m. onwards with hot dogs, veggie dogs and drinks available at our usual reasonable prices. We hope to see many of you out for this happy occasion.

If you’re interested and able to help us with the BBQ, please let us know at tpbaseball@gmail.com.
