Membership Fee

Baseball Canada announces investment to strengthen baseball across Canada

New national membership fee will support the long-term health and development of the sport

OTTAWA – Baseball Canada’s Board of Directors has approved a $10 annual national membership fee, effective for the 2027-2028 fiscal year, to strengthen programs and services supporting the delivery and development of baseball across the country.

With Baseball Canada’s membership fee unchanged for more than a decade, coupled with nearly 38% growth in membership since 2022, the investment will provide additional resources to support the national federation, provincial organizations and the programs they deliver in partnership across Canada.

The work leading to the adjustment began at the Baseball Canada Fall Convention in 2024, where Baseball Canada and its provincial partners discussed the evolving needs and priorities of the sport. Subsequent consultation, priority setting, financial analysis and working group recommendations helped shape an approach focused on addressing shared needs across the Canadian baseball system.

The membership fee will support national initiatives, including:

• Grassroots programming such as Rally Cap and Baseball5
• Women’s and girls’ baseball
• Coach education
• Officials and umpire development
• National Championships
• Additional resources to support the delivery of national programs and services
• Dedicated subsidies will also help reduce financial barriers to coach education and assist teams with the cost of travelling to Baseball Canada National Championships.
