“I am stoked and very thankful for the opportunity to be involved with these young athletes and guide them through their 1st venture into national-level baseball.
The showcase was a different approach this year and 49 players got to showcase themselves over 5 days of competitive baseball. We believe we have picked a strong 30-man squad which is going to make it very tough for the coaching staff to cut it down to the final 20. It is an exciting opportunity for all of these young athletes to push themselves against the best young talent in the state.”
Baseball Queensland is pleased to announce the appointment of Lisa Norrie to the role of Manager, Queensland Women’s Team and Karina Connors to the role of Manager, Queensland Women’s Development Team ⚾
Both Lisa and Karina have extensive history playing for both Queensland and Australia and bring a wealth of coaching experience and expertise ✨
