ANNOUNCEMENT: 2021 SOFTBALL NSW UNDER 14 TRI SERIES

Published Fri 09 Apr 2021

On Thursday 1 April 2021, in consultation with Softball Queensland, the difficult decision was made to cancel the SNSW and SQLD Interstate Challenge in Lismore. Due to this cancellation, Softball NSW has been working with coaches to provide an event for all athletes, officials and parents to enjoy.

We are pleased to announce that Blacktown International Sportspark (BISP) will host the 2021 Softball NSW Under 14 Tri Series next week on Wednesday 14, Thursday 15 and Friday 16 April. This event will see our Metro Slammers, Metro Strikers and Country Sliders Boys’ and Girls’ teams play off in a three-day tournament incorporating both Fully Loaded and Fastpitch competitions.

Softball NSW hopes that all players, officials and parents enjoy the tournament and the experience it provides. This is a great opportunity to showcase some of the amazing talent our state has in this age group, and we encourage all members of our Softball community and the general public to attend the event.

A reminder that all attendees will be required to check-in via the Service NSW App on entry (available from the Apple App Store & Google Play).

The Fully Loaded Tournament will be played on Wednesday 14 April from 10:30am, with Finals at 5:30pm (Girls) and 6:30pm (Boys).

Following this, the Fastpitch Tournament will commence on Thursday 15 April from 9:00am, with Semi Finals and Finals on Friday 16 April. The Boys Fastpitch Final is scheduled for 11:00am, with the Girls Final following at 1:00pm.
