Introducing our 2024 Women’s Pathways Program
Women’s Baseball in South Australia is taking the country by storm. From our youth women coming home with the gold from the 2024 Australian Youth Women’s Championships to Carly Moore being the first South Australian to make the Emeralds squad, great things are happening here. The Baseball SA Performance Pathways Program wants to take our women to the next level and beyond.

We will provide an opportunity for female baseballers to have access to some of the best coaches in a structured program that will work on improving their strength and technique with the goal of making them the best at the state, national and international level.
The program will provide an opportunity to challenge themselves and each other while giving them the feedback they need through data analysis and mentorship.
