NEWS RELEASE
WELLAND JACKFISH
************************
Niagara's Greatest Show, the Welland Jackfish are gearing up for their sixth season in the IBL (they grow up so fast, don't they?). That means 21 more days of baseball in The Rose City —27 more days of donut races, beer bats, undie tosses, live music, entertainers, and all the fun you love at the ballpark!
On and off the field, the Jackfish are ready to take 2025 to new heights!
The Jackfish will kick off the summer with a home opener on Saturday, May 17, facing off against the Barrie Baycats.
In 2025, the Jackfish will also host the Guelph Royals twice at home, seeking redemption in a familiar matchup following their exciting playoff battle in the 2024 semifinal round.
Field manager Brian Essery is ready to build on last season’s success, which saw the team rack up a franchise record 31 wins, produce six All-IBL players, and see Jake Sanford and Ben Abram leading the league in batting average and wins respectfully.
In the stands, the entertainment team is cranking up the fun with fresh theme nights, fan-favourite giveaways, and wacky entertainment, ensuring you, your friends, and your family have a blast all summer long.
While the 2025 promotional schedule is still in the works, there are a few key dates to mark on your calendar: the home opener on May 17, the Canada Day celebration on July 1, and fan appreciation day on Aug. 16, during our final home game of the regular season. And of course, fans can expect popular promo`ons like the CAA Pack the Park, Firework SuperShows, and Thirsty Thursdays to be back at the ballpark this summer!
Want to secure your seat for 21 parties in the Rose City? Season tickets for the 2025 season memberships are s`ll available and can be purchased online. Single-game tickets will go on sale on Monday, March 31 at 9 a.m.
