The Mavericks will play the defending champion Okotoks Dawgs on June 14, and resume the Highway 3 rivalry against the Lethbridge Bulls on June 28.

There will be no Canada Day game at Athletic Park this year, as the Mavericks are on the road to take on the Moose Jaw Miller Express that night.

The WCBL will host its All-Star game in Edmonton on July 19.

The Mavericks wrap up the regular season on August 6 in Brooks.

This year, the Mavericks will be playing in the East Division, after the Yorkton Cardinals and Melville Millionaires announced they were stepping away from the league this year.

The Mavericks have also confirmed several players from last year will return in 2020, including pitchers Flynn Ridley and Owen Steele, along with outfielder Russell Strilchuck.
