Welcome to the North Shore Girls Fastpitch Association

Document Actions

Our mission is to provide girls an opportunity to play both fun and competitive fastpitch softball. Every year hundreds of athletes between the ages of 5 and 22 play on competitive house league teams and our Stars rep teams, organized by a dedicated executive and supported by a large contingent of parent and adult volunteers. Our home field is McCartney Park, located just off Mt. Seymour Parkway in North Vancouver (in beautiful British Columbia, Canada), with teams representing all areas of the North Shore from Horseshoe Bay to Deep Cove. The NSGFA is a part of Softball BC District 4.

Our association has been active on the North Shore since 1950 under one name or another. In 2009, we updated our name to the North Shore Girls Fastpitch Association when we completed the merger of the North Vancouver Girls Softball Association and the West Vancouver Girls Softball Association.
