AAA softball is the highest level of competitive fastpitch in Manitoba. It is designed for athletes who are fully committed to training, development, and competition at an elite level. AAA players compete against the strongest teams in the province and often go on to represent Manitoba or pursue post-secondary playing opportunities.
The Smitty’s Terminators are one of Manitoba’s premier AAA softball organizations. The program has a long history of developing talented athletes, providing advanced coaching, and competing at the top levels of provincial and national play.
Terminator teams are formed annually in multiple age divisions (U13, U15, U17, U19) depending on interest and athlete selection.
Tryouts:
Athletes are required to attend tryouts each season to be considered for a Terminators roster.
Tryouts are typically held in early September.
