Softball Fields & Facilities
Newmarket makes the list as one of Canada’s Top 25 Best Places to Live (and play Softball!!!)
Newmarket has consistently been named one of the Best Places to Live in Canada by MoneySense Magazine and has garnered an international reputation for being one of the country's most dynamic, diverse and desirable towns to live and work in.
A special thank you to the entire team at the Town of Newmarket's Recreation & Culture and Development and Infrastructure Departments for keeping our facilities safe, well-groomed, well-lit and well serviced throughout the entire softball season. With their support over our nearly 50 year history, our Hive is buzzing and the place to be on a warm summer evening.
