Horseshoe Canada Membership 2006


Nine of the ten provinces have their own horseshoe organization (plus the Yukon Territory) combining for a total of close to 2000 individual members. Below, you will find a list of all the provincial associations along with the number of pitchers listed in CanStats for each of the provinces (versus the overall population). The total is around 1400 pitchers, but there are a lot more members as for instance Alberta counts close to 500, Sask. 141, N.S. 72, etc... Some of their members are non-players or league only pitchers...
