Heading into the depths of winters, Centrefield Sports can be a reprieve for all those looking to stay warm and indoors in London, while remaining competitive and active on the field.
The facility will play host to a number of different activities as the days become shorter and the new year approaches. New baseball leagues, camps and clinics will launch, and social sporting events will continue, including flag football, soccer, slo-pitch, and more.
Extended hours began in October, and the facility will continue to be open every day of the week to ease the winter woes. Private baseball lessons and rentals are available. Please keep in mind that slots are limited and will fill up quickly.
Highlighting the winter season will be a Christmas break camp that will take place during the holidays. There will also be PD Day camps in October, November and January, where children can stay active while away from school and on the field for full days for regimented activities.
Following successes with seven and eight-week clinics in the months of November and December, and flourishing rookie and mosquito leagues, the facility will look ahead to similar clinics and a pee wee baseball league in the early months of 2018.
Centrefield Sports is also the home of the elite amateur Great Lake Canadians baseball program. During the fall season, a couple of players made college commitments to Division-I schools. Canadians catcher Owen Diodati, 16, committed to Big East powerhouse Xavier University in Cincinnati, while 17-year-old outfielder Matt Jenkins committed to the prestigious Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
After being relegated to the gym for the early winter months, the Great Lake Canadians will resume baseball activities in January before beginning a third season in the Canadian Premier Baseball League.
Memberships to Centrefield Sports are available to suit any need and commitment level, varying in length from one month to 12 months, with gym-specific memberships also offered.
