Baseball BC is considering entering a team in the 2006 Women's National Invitational Tournament to be held in Gatineau, Qué., July 20-23.
The championship will also be used to select the 18-person roster for the Canadian National Women’s Team, which will compete at the 2nd Baseball World Cup in Taipei, Taiwan August 1 to 6, 2006. The Team will be announced following the gold medal game on the Sunday.
Last year's tournament had five teams (Ontario with 2 teams, Québec, Alberta and Nova Scotia). It would be great this year to get 1-2 additional teams in order to give all of our best players a chance to be selected for the national team.
Baseball Canada’s 2006 Women’s National Team will be introduced before a July 24th game at Lynx Stadium (AAA Orioles) at 1:05 pm when the Lynx are hosting the Norfolk Tides (AAA NY Mets).
Due to financial considerations, interested athletes will be responsible for a significant portion of the costs associated with this program. (i.e. airfare, accommodation, and meals).
If you are interested in this program, please click here to register. This will help us determine if we will be able to put a team together.
