The KFL season kicked off this week with 6 games played in primarily cold, rainy weather. 4-7 degrees was not the plan when the scheduled was drawn up but the diamonds are ready so we play ball.
The Predators (2-0) and Kings (1-0-1) made it through the week undefeated though the Kings almost chalked up a loss to the Selects (game of the week in my completely unbiased and objective opinion) but a 1-1 tie keep them from putting a one in the loss column.
Aces and Smoke split the week both going 1-1 while the Diamond Jaxx and Selects will go onto next week looking for their first win.
Meetings are happening, schedules are being created, player contracts are being signed (that last one may not be factual).
The 2026 season is around the corner. As usual, if you are interested in playing fastpitch-softball in 2026 but don't have a team, please fill our the form on the Want to Play? tab and get your name on the list of available Free Agents for the upcoming season.
The Kings are your 2025 KFL champions with their 3-game sweep of the Predators in the finals. With the Kings jumping out to a quick lead to start the game, as they did in the previous two wins, the Predators would continue to put runners on base but be unable to cash a run.
With that, the Kings walk away with their 5th championship in the last 7 years, including finals appearances in 8 of the last 9.
Congratulations to both teams on well-played games.
The finals have been set. The Kings, after getting by the Smoke, have advanced to face the Predators, who have been waiting for their opponent after eliminating the Aces last week.
Game one is set for tonight, 8pm at Budd Park.
Both semi-final game ones were played Thursday night and both of the lower-seeded teams came out on top.
The Smoke jumped out early and managed to hang on in their 6-4 win over the Kings. While the Predators managed a nine-run inning on their way to a 10-1 victory over the Aces.
Game two for both series are scheduled for Monday night. The Kings and Smoke at 7pm and the Aces and Predators at 9pm.
And for those interested, the u23, Mens and Masters Canadian championships are at Peter Hallman all week. Details on the website.
