<div style="text-align: justify;color: #000000;font-family: Arial;font-size: 14px;line-height: 100%;">(Ottawa, ON) Following the timelines of the Men’s National Team Selection Criteria, the Team Canada coaching staff has identified a group of seven (7) core players and thirteen (13) additional players who have been invited to attend the 2015 Senior Men’s National Team Selection Camp that will be held in May, 2015. Seventeen (17) of these athletes will have the opportunity represent Canada at the ISF Men’s World Championship from June 26 to July 5, 2015 in Saskatoon, SK while fifteen (15) will be named to the Pan American Games roster, with that event scheduled for July 12 to 18, 2015 in Ajax, ON.<br>
<br>
In addition to the announcement of the core players and selection camp roster, Softball Canada is also pleased to announce that John Hill (St. John’s, NL) will join the Senior Men’s National Team coaching staff as an assistant coach. John has most recently coached the 3 Cheers Pub club team from Newfoundland and Labrador that won three consecutive Gold medals at the Senior Men’s Canadian Championships, adding a silver and a bronze over the team’s five year existence.<br>
<br>
“John brings a wealth of experience to the coaching staff and has worked with many of Canada’s top athletes throughout the years” stated Mike Branchaud, Manager – National Teams and Canadian Championships. “His track record of success will help bring a winning attitude this summer.”<br>
<br>
The seven (7) core players identified by the Men’s National Team coaching staff are:</div>
