Under 18 Boys

Background

The first U19 Men’s Championship was held in 1989 in Sydney and was won by NSW. The Shield is named to commemorate Nox Bailey’s contribution to softball. In 2020, the age group changed to U18, reflecting the change made by the World Baseball Softball Confederation with the age group of the Junior Men’s World Cup.

Today

The Junior Steelers program continues to produce world-class players who progress to the Aussie Steelers team.
