“Canada Day is always a special place in Okotoks, AB. Every year the WCBL Okotoks Dawgs take the field in front of a packed house to celebrate Canada’s birthday in style. This year was no different. The province of Alberta lifted many regulations, which enabled the ecstatic Dawgs fanbase to return to Seaman Stadium. Dawgs Black took the field in front of 3500+ fans, while special guest Jason Kenney (Premier of Alberta) took in the special night. For baseball fans, having the WCBL back to full capacity in Okotoks is something many were excited about but just across the road at Tourmaline and Conrad Field, excitement inhabited both parks over four days as the 15U Dawgs (Black and Red) host their annual Canada Day Classic.”

Amidst record temperatures heating western Canada and the prairies, the Okotoks Dawgs Academy looked to continue their strong seasons across their four teams in action. Heading into the weekend, Dawgs 15U Black and Dawgs 13U were both undefeated and looked to continue their winning ways, while Dawgs 15U Red and Dawgs 16U hit the road for a couple twin bills.
