Let's celebrate! SWBL Community Gala Day on June 27!
The Sydney Women's Baseball League recently celebrated an incredible 25 years of baseball - and we're ready to celebrate with our amazing community!
To celebrate the history of SWBL, join our Community Gala Day on Sunday 27th June at HJ Mahoney Memorial Park, Marrickville.
First up will be the Community Cup: thirty minute games in a three round knockout competition, vying for the inaugural Community Cup! Each SWBL team will be joined with community groups for a modified, lightning round of baseball.
Next, there'll be the Best of the Best All-Stars game. Coached by Pip, the SWBL Lifers (awarded after 10 years in the League), will face the Rookies (everyone else) and be led by Randi. The game will bring a few Lifers out of retirement and promises to be an exciting game of baseball featuring some of the best players to have ever suited up for the League.
And at the field, there'll be food trucks, beer tastings, and community stalls.
The SWBL Community Gala Day will kick off at 11am on Sunday June 27 with a Welcome To Country - it's going to be awesome!
Finally, there's the afterparty, hosted at The Imperial Hotel in Erskineville, upstairs at Imperial UP rooftop bar, kicking off at 4pm. We'll present the Community Cup and the All-Star awards, and DJ Kate Monroe will be on the decks to celebrate, in true SWBL fashion.
