These athletes will attend a Selection Camp from May 22-25, 2014 in Brampton, ON, with the final team going on to compete at the ISF Junior Men\u2019s World Championship from July 11-20, 2014 in Whitehorse, YK.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am very pleased with the top thirty-two selections for the Junior Men\u2019s National Team program\u201d said Junior Men\u2019s National Team Head Coach Jim Jones. \u201cOur coaching staff and our contacts throughout Canada have worked very hard to make our camp in May as competitive as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Canada finished fourth at the previous ISF Junior Men\u2019s World Championship held in Parana, Argentina in 2012, with Argentina winning Gold, Japan taking Silver and Australia with Bronze. The event was held in Whitehorse in 2008, when Canada lost 2-1 in eight innings to Australia in the Gold medal game to win the Silver medal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have had to make some very difficult decisions to get to this point and anticipate some even more difficult decisions to get to our top seventeen\u201d added Jones. \u201cIt is imperative that each player understands the caliber of the top six teams in the ISF World Championship and commits to compete for a spot on Team Canada. Those players that are training now and plan to continue to do so leading up to the camp in May will have the best chance of making Team Canada and help bring home a Gold medal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The athletes who have been named to the 2014 Junior Men\u2019s National Team Selection Camp Roster are:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Athletes<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Alex Anthony (Shubenacadie, NS)<br \/>\nJohnathan Baker (Kitchener, ON)<br \/>\nTaylor Barber (Saskatoon, SK)<br \/>\nSamuel B\u00e9dard-Desmarais (Nicolet, QC)<br \/>\nBranden Blunt (Napanee, ON)<br \/>\nJustin Boyer (St. Louis, SK)<br \/>\nQuinten Bruce (Grand Valley, ON)<br \/>\nBrendon Donegan (Aggassiz, BC)<br \/>\nBrent Eby (Waterloo, ON)<br \/>\nJosh Elliot (Prince Albert, SK)<br \/>\nJustin Ganie (Irma, AB)<br \/>\nBrendan Hall (Orton, ON)<br \/>\nEric Healey (Chapels Cove, NL)<br \/>\nTravis Hyde (Tavistock, ON)<br \/>\nAnthony Lapierre (St-Gervais, QC)<br \/>\nAlexandre Lemieux (St-Gervais, QC)<br \/>\nZachary MacKay (Irma, AB)<br \/>\nLayne O\u2019Halloran (Port Perry, ON)<br \/>\nTyler Pauli (Mitchell, ON)<br \/>\nNick Penner (New Hamburg, ON)<br \/>\nCurtis Piecowye (Saskatoon, SK)<br \/>\nMatthew Pilon (Duck Lake, SK)<br \/>\nTyler Randerson (New Hamburg, ON)<br \/>\nFran\u00e7ois-Charles Ren\u00e9 (St-L\u00e9onard-d\u2019Aston, QC)<br \/>\nTaylor Schubada (Irma, AB)<br \/>\nJeffrey St. Pierre (Port Perry, ON)<br \/>\nDylan Taylor (Grand Valley, ON)<br \/>\nMarc-Andr\u00e9 Villeneuve (St-L\u00e9onard-d\u2019Aston, QC)<br \/>\nMatt Wardrop (Owen Sound, ON)<br \/>\nJared Weishar (Teeswater, ON)<br \/>\nHaaken Zatterberg (Napanee, ON)<br \/>\nTyson Zehr (Tavistock, ON)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The coaching staff reserves the right to add or remove athletes from this roster at any time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coaching Staff<\/strong><br \/>\nHead Coach\t Jim Jones (Leduc, AB)<br \/>\nAssistant Coach\t Doug Chase (Port Alberni, BC)<br \/>\nAssistant Coach\t George Ryder (Port Dover, ON)<br \/>\nAssistant Coach\t TBD<br \/>\nTeam Leader\t Duke Cormier (Summerside, PEI)<br \/>\nManager \u2013 National Teams\t Mike Branchaud (Ottawa, ON)<br \/>\n-SC-<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nFor more information, please contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gilles LeBlanc<br \/>\nManager &#8211; Marketing and Communications<br \/>\nSoftball Canada<br \/>\n(613) 523-3386 ext. 3105<br \/>\ngleblanc [at] softball.ca<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\nSoftball Canada annonce sa formation du camp de s\u00e9lection<br \/>\n2014 de l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale junior masculine<\/p>\n<p>(Ottawa, ON) Softball Canada est heureux d\u2019annoncer la liste d\u2019athl\u00e8tes qui ont \u00e9t\u00e9 nomm\u00e9s \u00e0 la formation du camp de s\u00e9lection 2014 de l\u2019\u00e9quipe nationale junior masculine.
