January 28, 2010 - Earlybird Registration Deadline, Sponsors & Advertising, Registration Confirmation Emails, Coordinators Needed.

Earlybird Registration Deadline Jan 31

Register by January 31 for the 2010 season to receive your earlybird discount!

Visit our Registration page at http://nsfastpitch.ca/registration for more information including fees, financial assistance, and our refund policy.

If your daughter was Squirt age (10 years) last season, she would have received a Softball BC Lifetime Membership number.  To avoid being charged another fee for this, make sure you have this number when you register.  If you do not know your Softball BC number, contact the VP Junior at vpjunior@nsfastpitch.ca to request it (please provide your daughter's full name and birthdate).

To start the registration process, visit http://nsfastpitch.ca/registration/registration-step-1.

Sponsors & Advertising

North Shore Fastpitch has sponsorship opportunities for businesses and others who would like to support minor girls softball.  We also have advertising available in our email newsletter.

Raise the visibility of your business in the community and spread your message to hundreds of households in North and West Vancouver.  Visit our Sponsorship & Advertising page at http://nsfastpitch.ca/sponsors/sponsorship-advertising to find out more.

Contact Roland Schigas (Marketing Director, 604-924-0238, marketing@nsfastpitch.ca) to become a sponsor or book an ad.

Registration Confirmation Emails

Some overly-restrictive email server spam filters are preventing registration confirmation emails from being delivered.

We have had confirmation emails bounced back to our server from the following domains:

  • hsbc.com
  • icbc.com
  • sd43.bc.ca

We have also had some emails bounce because an incorrect address was provided (unknown user, domain name not found) or the inbox was full.

If you paid by credit card and have not received an email within 1 week saying your registration status is CONFIRMED & PAID, please contact the Registrar at registrar@nsfastpitch.ca.  If you paid by cheque, please allow 3-4 weeks before contacting us.  In all cases, please provide us with another email address that we can use.

Coordinators Needed

NS Fastpitch needs volunteers to fill the vital role of Coordinator for the Blastball and Pee Wee divisions.

Division Coordinators are active during the season and in the months leading up to the start of play.  Their most important jobs include team forming prior to league play, and communications during the season.  Coordinators are expected to attend monthly Executive meetings starting February, and training and guidance are provided by the VP Senior and VP Junior.

Coordinator duties

  • Team forming (Feb-Mar);
  • Email and phone communications with coaches and managers (Mar-Jun);
  • Assisting the VP Senior and VP Junior with criminal record checks, Softball BC forms, etc.

If you are able to help in one of these important roles, please check the "Division Coordinator" box in the Volunteering section of your Registration Form (Step 2).  We need Division Coordinators for Blastball, Mini Mite, Pee Wee, and Rep.

Contact Jennifer Duholke (VP Senior, 604-986-0067, vpsenior@nsfastpitch.ca) or Sandy Karr (VP Junior, 604-929-3715, vpjunior@nsfastpitch.ca) if you have any questions.
