All set for softball excitement LYNN PRINS
THE Softball Junior Women’s World Championship has one day to go before the first ball gets pitched. People’s Post – being the media partner – will be covering the event and has been involved from the start carrying profiles on individual players, and introduced the South African side and the management team. The JWWC, which consists of 16 teams and lasts just under two weeks, starts Wednesday 7 December with an opening game between two African countries, South Africa and Botswana. Botswana took out time to have a training session yesterday morning. Participating teams are South Africa, US, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Puerto Rica, Chinese Taipei, China, Argentina, Russia,
Germany, Botswana, Brazil, Czech Republic, and Zimbabwe. Supporters had an opportunity of watching world class Softball during the warm-up games on Thursday evening, when New Zealand played local teams Glenthorn A’s and Falcons-Normies. The warm-up games continued over the weekend with great support, when South Africa, US, Japan, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia played each other. New Zealand fell short losing 4-2 against Japan, South Africa lost 13-0 to Canada, and US beat Australia 7-2. On Saturday a minor error occurred when the technical team found fault in the lights of the B field. The game, between South Africa and Canada, was to have started at 19:30 but was postponed until Sunday. “We had a small problem, but we can now safely say that all slight problems have been resolved. It’s
important that we have warm-up games in terms of field facilities, and warm-up games are relevant to team preparations too, so playing faults can be dealt with,” said Noore Nacerodien, head of the Local Organising Committee. “Being the first such event in Africa, the LOC and I are confident that we will host an event of unprecedented quality. This event will put us in good stead for hosting any future international events in Cape Town”, he added. People’s Post caught up with US coach Paula McGovern, whose team played against Australia on Saturday. When asked about the field conditions at Turfhall and the stadium, she said: “My team and I are happy to be here and the city should be proud to have a world class Softball venue like Turfhall.” When asked whether New Zealand would follow in the footsteps of their rugby team
and fill their sport cabinet with the JWWC trophy, Coach Venita Hokai commented: “I have a team full of youngsters that can play in the next world champs, but they will have to be on top of their game if they want to win the tournament. However, I will be happy if we can end up in the top six”. Nacerodien also delivered a message to the teams and everybody who helped organise the event. “From my side I wish everyone best of luck. The community of Belthorn has been superb, and they are ready to welcome the world to their area.” Tickets cost R20 per day from Computicket.
