Welcome to the NSW State Championships On behalf of Baseball NSW, I am pleased to welcome you all to the 2021 NSW State Championships. After such a chaotic year as a result of COVID19, we are looking forward to this year’s tournament featuring the best players from our Metro and Country associations battling it out on the diamond. We have over 650 players, from 10 Associations participating over the coming days from our League Age 10/11’s through to Little League Majors, Intermediate League, Junior League and Senior League teams. I can only imagine the hours all of these teams, coaches, managers and parents have put into their preparation for this year’s Championships. The last 12 months have shown us that hard work and determination can still be rewarded and we, at Baseball NSW, are looking forward to seeing the hard work playing out on the field. COVID19 has truly seen our motto of ‘Character, Courage & Loyalty’ come to the fore as we all pulled together to fight to keep our families and our sport safe enough to continue. The 2021 State Championships is a COVID19 Safe event and we encourage all attending to adhere to the current State Health Orders in place at that time. As a reminder, only the top two teams in each division will go on to represent NSW at the National Tournaments later in the year. Lastly, none of this would be possible without our amazing volunteers and parents, a big thank you to all the volunteers and officials who donate their time to make ensure the players make the diamond prepared to take on the best NSW has to offer. Without them, the NSW State Championships would not be possible. I wish all teams participating in the 2021 State Championships the best of luck throughout the competition and beyond.
