As CEO of Baseball Queensland, I would like to personally thank on behalf of the staff and the board all the players, officials, coaches, parents and families who made this year’s Women’s State Titles a fantastic event and thriving success.
It was a fantastic four days of baseball in Brisbane for the 2019 Little League Girl’s, Youth Women, and Open Women State Titles.
Baseball Queensland would also like to acknowledge and thank All Stars Baseball Club for helping to make the tournaments a rousing success.
Through the collective efforts of everyone involved women within the sport of baseball showcased their talents for all to see. Thank you to the 232 participants who graced us with your smiles, laughter and love for the game. You continue to pave the way for the future of women’s baseball in Queensland, and that future is very bright.
Some key milestones were the addition of Division 2 to the Open Women’s competition. This increased the opportunity for participants new and old to experience baseball and provided a positive entry into tournament baseball.
We would also like to thank the 4 NSW Country teams that travelled to participate in our tournament. We were thrilled to experience your level of play and spirit in which you played the game.
A special acknowledgement to the Director of the Participation Mr. Geoff Wade, through his initiatives and hard work with his elected sub-committee Baseball Queensland was successful in “Building a Better Future for Baseball”
To reiterate, thanks again to everyone involved in making these state titles such a memorable event for the players and fans alike. We would also like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas, and a happy and safe holiday season. We hope to see everyone back out on the field in 2020!
