Youth Women and Women’s National Championship Roster Announcement

Baseball Victoria
16 December 2015

Baseball Victoria is proud to announce the two teams that will be competing in the 2016 Youth Women and National Women’s Championships. 

Both are set to take place at the Narrabundah Ballpark in Canberra, with the youth women scheduled for 10 January to 15 January and the senior women beginning on the same day and finishing two days hence on 17 January. 

The youth women’s head coach Rob Gell is very pleased with this year’s squad. 

“The Victorian U16 Youth Women's baseball team for 2016 has been selected after a high quality tryout,” Gell said. “The coaching staff have been amazed with the ability and enthusiasm of the players. Although the team is quite young, with many of the girls available for the next one-to-two years, we expect that they will acquit themselves well, have fun and develop as baseball players. 

“Our teams preparation has been first class and the girls are excited about what's ahead for them as they prepare to represent Victoria at the National Baseball Championships in January at Canberra. We welcome supporters to follow our team progress on our Team App: Victorian U16 Girls Baseball.”
