North American Liberty Belles Women's Baseball

Rate: 1 Flag

The North American Liberty Belles will be Hong Kong bound next month to represent all of North America. We'll be playing in an international women's baseball tourney, the 2009 Hong Kong Phoenix Cup Women's International Baseball Tournament, against teams from Japan, Hong Kong, Korea, Chinese Taipei, and Australia. There will be several women's national team players on each team (including 2 on the our Belles team... one from Canada and one from the U.S.). This will be a very competitive event.

The North American Liberty Belles is a women’s baseball tournament team that includes players from the United States and Canada. Its players participate in various women’s baseball leagues and women’s baseball teams in North America, including other women’s baseball tournament teams. Some of its members also play in men’s baseball leagues and in men’s/coed baseball competitions. The varying levels of experience of the Belles include youth baseball and softball, high school baseball and softball, adult recreational and elite level baseball and softball, collegiate baseball, collegiate softball, professional softball, and women’s national team baseball. Some of the players also have coaching and instructing experience in baseball and softball, and some are women’s baseball organizers and promoters. The North American Liberty Belles was created specifically for the 2009 Hong Kong Phoenix Cup Women’s International Baseball Tournament.

I think I've been asleep. Thanks for being awake and blogging on this. JLiu had asked me to do it, but other things kept coming up. Let me know (email) if you have any ideas about coverage, because I'd like to do it, help with it, or participate in some way in it. Meanwhile, I need to get back to posting some of the interviews of women baseball players I had the privilege to do.
Certainly... if you want to cover it by writing/blogging about it, that would be great! Let me know if you have any other thoughts as well. The more we get it out there, the better!
