In 2019, Softball New Brunswick implemented a system for all Provincial Championships.
A Provincial Championships Tiering system will encourage more recreational based team to compete at the Provincial Championships yearly, by registering for the Tier 2 Recreational Division.
Teams will all be encouraged to join the Tier 1 division, but are more than welcome to join the Tier 2 division for more recreational based competition. Upon registration, each team will be given the option to select Tier 1 or Tier 2 on the registration form. Teams will be reviewed to ensure they are in the appropriate division and that there will be no teams competing at a lower division to try and more ‘simply’ to win a championship. Regular season records may be requested by SNB to be able to better determine the appropriate category.
A championship must have a minimum of 3 teams registered in Tier 1 and Tier 2 for both tiers to run. If not, all teams will be combined into Tier 1 competitive competition.
Provincial Championship registration MUST be completed a minimum of 2 weeks prior to the start date of each championship.
For any questions regarding the tiering system, please contact Hillary at executivedirector@softballnb.ca
