We will provide updates as this situation moves forward.

On line registration is now available - please click here - for teams that have previously reserved a spot.  Please note that teams that do not reserve a spot by contacting us in advance will not be accepted. 

Unfortunately, in some instances, divisions are full and we are adding teams to a wait list.  Our experience is that several teams will fall down when it comes  time to reserve formally on  line and pay so please  be sure to  check in each division and get added to the wait list as there remains a chance a spot will  come open.

For teams that have reserved spots and are thinking about lodging, the summer season is busy in Muskoka as it is a beautiful vacation destination.  As such, we encourage teams to be open minded about splitting up to Airbnb cottages, motels  and camp grounds.

Please note - we have 26 9U teams and counting and will take as many teams as we can get as this tourney has unlimited space.  We are trying to make it a 9U festival that teams will come to early in the season to play against teams of like ability and to participate in skill competitions and coaching seminars.  This tourney takes place June 5-7 and we hope you all can make it.

Please let me know if you have any questions by calling 416-818-3036 or emailing me at muskokahornets@rogers.com

Yours in Baseball

On Monday August 26th, 16 year old Zack Boese of the Muskoka Hornets 18u AA Team will depart for Oyen, Alberta to play for the Badlands Badgers.

Zack will be attending South Central High School in Oyen for Grade 11 and will play for the Badgers throughout the fall and spring seasons.

This is an exciting opportunity for Zack as the program has an impressive track record in placing players in college programs throughout the USA and Canada.

A heavy fall and spring game schedule (50+ games) will allow Zack the opportunity to compete against some of the best high school aged players that the States and Canada have to offer.

“We are excited to see another Muskoka Hornets player pursuing baseball at a higher level.  After graduating several players to US and Canadian colleges in the past two years, Zack is the first player from our program to play for a high school academy," commented Peter Haynes, President of the  Muskoka Hornets.  "We are very proud of Zack and wish him the best in his school year," Haynes added.

It is no easy feat for a 16 year old kid to move thousands of km’s from home to pursue this incredible opportunity. The Muskoka Hornets wish Zack the best of luck, and are excited to see him back in a Hornets jersey in July of 2020.
