With partners Healthway, WA Mental Health Association, Mental Health Commission and DLLSC, SportWest is working to strengthen mental health prevention initiatives across community sport in Western Australia. This may help to address some of the challenges associated with the impacts of and recovery from COVID-19.
As part of these efforts, there is a survey for sporting members, including those in the Baseball WA community, to complete. The results of this survey will help to establish the need for further mental health resources and programs in the future. Please click HERE to view a note from SportWest CEO Rob Thompson outlining the Mental Wellbeing Provision in Sport project. There is a survey link embedded in the document and also available here. The survey should take about 20 minutes, and clubs and members are encouraged to submit their opinions. Thank you in advance for your assistance with this survey and project. Hello Knights, and welcome to the 2020/2021 baseball season. Continuing on from last year, all registrations are being carried out online using the Sportlomo registration portal. If you used it last year then it's even easier this year as you have already entered most of the required information. Payment of fees will continue as per previous seasons with bank transfer preferred.
Senior season commences on the 18th of October and we hope once again to be competing for finals positions. Our membership package is set up and active HERE. Dion Wilkes President Yangebup Knights Baseball Club
Baseball WA is pleased to advise that the registrations are now being taken for the 2021 Pony Girls League.
The BWA Pony Girls League will offer all females of League Age 13 to 16 the opportunity to play in a "league of their own". All players will be able to select from a menu of available clubs who have advised BWA they are interested in fielding a girls team. At present, these clubs are five returning from 2020 (Wanneroo, Carine, Willetton, Wembley and Braves), together with three new clubs being Byford, Kalamunda and South Perth. The purpose of the Pony Girls League is to:
The BWA registration cost will be $80. Each club will have an additional cost - this additional cost is reflected in the drop down menu when you select your club. The BWA registration fee component shall provide you with a numbered player tee shirt and WA Women's player cap, both to be worn on game days. Games will be played each Sunday afternoon - your club will advise you of training day information. Where clubs do not have sufficient players to field teams in their own right, BWA will group clubs together to create joint teams. At the completion of the League, an All-Star team is selected to play in the Pony Girls Baseball World Series in July (subject to travel restrictions and confirmation that the tournament is going ahead). Registrations are currently being taken through the Event portal on a first-in, best-dressed basis with link via the website page HERE. A reminder that for those girls aged 10 through 14, the Pony Girls Futures program starting in October is also available and taking registrations. Registration for the Futures program close end of September and for the League close end of October. Baseball WA is pleased to announce an exclusive partnership with Diamond Fitness, the official provider of strength and conditioning for our High Performance athletes.

Athletes have access to the Diamond Performance Centre in Osborne Park, where a team of trainers including ex-professional baseball players Dean White and Josh Kennelly and ASCA level 2 coaches Corban Wroe and Johnny Ogilvie utilise extensive expertise and understanding of sport science to deliver cutting edge programs. “We are proud of our long-standing relationship with Baseball WA and the success the athletes in our Diamond High Performance Baseball Programs have achieved,” Diamond HP Director Dean White said. “We look forward to providing more elite baseball athletes access to the tools they need to succeed on and off the field.” Click HERE for an exclusive offer for BWA members and more information on the Diamond High Performance Baseball Program. As the City of Wanneroo is rapidly expanding, with the majority of the City's population growth being experienced in the northern coastal corridor over the next 20 years, the Alkimos Ball Club Inc “Titans” was founded in 2016 to develop baseball (both juniors and seniors). With an inundation of requests for representation for ages 8 and below, Little Titans Tee-ball was born with our inaugural season launched last year. The founding members of our club have over 40 years of experience and knowledge in both sports, with some previously representing Perth Heat Baseball, as well as state and national teams in baseball and tee-ball. It is our collective goal to ensure that we establish a solid, reputable club that the local community can be proud of and to provide a much needed outlet for people to participate in the sports we are very passionate about through a professional, friendly, social and encouraging environment. Alkimos Ball Club endeavour to field multiple teams in Tee-Ball, all junior baseball grades from Machine Pitch to Big League. Works have already commenced on what we hope will be a big year in junior development and also coaching development (for any members who wish to be involved). We look forward to extending our senior grades with hopes of future representation in state league and taking out a premiership after just missing out two years in a row. Online registrations are now open through our registration portal. Payments of fees will continue as previous to the club bank account. Any enquiries can be forwarded to Registrar Sue Hoen: [email protected] With exciting new home grounds and facilities on the horizon, it is vitally important our members get behind the club in registering early and paying fees. We want all players, coaches, scorers, social members and volunteers to register through the portal, which will be a great way for our club to update all our members' contact details. Sponsorship is more important than ever for the Alkimos Ball Club. If you are interested in becoming a sponsor, large or small or know of anyone who would love to become a part of our Titan Fam through sponsorship, please let us know. We have standard packages or we can design a package to suit. For more information please send your enquiry to [email protected]. The Season opens on 17th October with our Little Titans Tee-ball and Little League Baseball teams, with senior baseball following on the 18th, playing through to mid-March with a break for both seniors and juniors over Christmas. Alkimos Ball Club also has a Facebook page open for all to see advertising our great club and closed groups for members communication.
