Softball Australia

I am deeply saddened by the passing of Margaret Swann, a true pioneer and World Champion who helped lay the foundations of our sport on the global stage. Beyond her remarkable achievements on the field, Margaret will be remembered for her humility, her love of the game, and the way she inspired and connected with generations of athletes, always leading by example. On behalf of the international softball community, I extend my heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, teammates, and all those in Australia and around the world who were touched by her life. @SoftballOz

We're thrilled with the announcement of Redcliffe as host of the WBSC Women's Softball World Cup Finals 2027, the flagship event of international women's softball. Held one year before the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics and five years until the Brisbane 2032 Games, this tournament will highlight Australia's strong passion for softball and the deep roots the sport has in the country's sporting community. #SoftballWorldCupW
