The Softball Program features the largest of the Academy’s squads with 13 female and 13 male athletes. Selected in September each year, the squad undergoes an intense period of technical skill development at the Softball NSW headquarters at Blacktown International Sports Park under the guidance of Head Coach John Neilsen and an extensive coaching support team for both the girls and boys squads.

 

The Program also involves fundamental educational components such as Drugs In Sport and Nutrition, opportunities to compete against other Academies and travel interstate for broader competition events, as well as Academy functions and events with other Academy athletes.

 

The ultimate goal of the Program is to assist the young female and male athletes progress through to NSW Under 16s and Under 19s squads. The Program is supported by Softball NSW and Blacktown International Sports Park.
