The tournament will feature the ISC men’s division with berths for the 2022 ISC World Tournament in Moline, IL, along with U23 and Legends 50+ Divisions.


In a first for the Canada East Qualifier, Softball Premier TV will be on hand to provide multi-camera HD streaming for three games on Saturday and another three on Sunday.


Teams are encouraged to confirm their spots in the tournaments early as there will be limited space in each division.


Hotels are available in nearby Stratford. We suggest booking early to avoid the seasonal rush.

ISC Qualifier format will be double knockout with a single championship game.


For the U23 and Legends divisions, it will be a round-robin with the top team getting a bye to the championship game and the second and third-place teams playing in a single semi-final.


Our co-umpires-in-chief are Ed Otterman and Trevor Topping. Interested officials should contact them about working the tournament.


After a two-year hiatus, we look forward to bringing ISC fastball back to Mitchell!
