Welland Jackfish

The Welland Jackfish are an independent minor-league baseball team based in Welland, Ontario, Canada. The Jackfish are a member of the Canadian Baseball League, an independent baseball league established in 1919 which is not affiliated with Major League Baseball. They are the defending Dominico Cup champions, having claimed their 2nd title in 2025.

On October 2, 2018, the Burlington Herd were approved to relocate to Welland, and rebranded as the Welland Jackfish.

In their first year in Welland, the Jackfish set their best regular season record in franchise history with a 19–17 record, and earned their first playoff series victory defeating the London Majors 4-1.

Their second campaign in the Rose City saw the Jackfish finish 15–15 in a condensed 30-game 2021 season. They were swept in the first round of the playoffs.

During the 2023 season, the Jackfish won their first League Pennant in franchise history finishing with a 31-11 record. They carried this momentum into the Dominico Cup playoffs and on September 16, 2023, the Jackfish clinched their first Dominico Cup title in franchise history defeating the Barrie Baycats 4-2 in the best-of-seven series.

In front of a sellout crowd of 3,248 fans at ‘The Pond' aka Welland Stadium, the Jackfish captured its second Dominico Cup in three years defeating the Barrie Baycats 4-1 in the best-of-seven series.
