The Lae Softball Association (LSA) is making a spirited comeback, inviting enthusiasts to join them in rediscovering the joys of softball, free of cost.
After the hiatus caused by the COVID-19 pandemic three years ago, the LSA is back in action, with a resolute focus on reigniting the passion for the sport.
President Lindsay Pulu, buoyed by the ongoing Slow Pitch Mix Softball Challenge, expressed optimism about the revival.
“It’s surely one way of reviving back the interest, and we will see how we can build on from there to get the game up and running in Lae in 2024.”
Acknowledging the initial hurdles faced due to the nationwide absence of softball, Pulu emphasized the need to start afresh.
He urged individuals, teams, groups, and the business community to rally behind Lae Softball, viewing partnership as a vital step towards rejuvenating the sport.
The ongoing Slow Pitch Mix competition, featuring teams such as Tigers SC, Puma D10ers, Jetz, IS&T Manalos, Marlins Black and Yellow, Nadzab Reds, and Bismark, serves as a prelude to the upcoming fast-pitch season in 2024 for both men and women.
Pulu stated that this would be the timeline leading into the 2024 proper season.
For those interested in being a part of this exciting revival or seeking more information, Mr. Pulu can be contacted at mobile numbers 7101 0839 or 7204 0039.
As Lae Softball charts its path towards resurgence, the community eagerly anticipates a return to the diamond, where camaraderie and competition thrive hand in hand.
