World Men's Softball Championship











It is upon us, the ISF World Men's Softball Championship is being held in a place most of you have probably never heard of, let alone, been to. Saskatoon! This city of about 200,000 or so is in the province of Saskatchewan in Canada.

New Zealand have won the past three championships for a total of 5 world championship titles dating back to 1966, as well as placing in the top 3 in all but two championships.

This championship, as I write this, has them undefeated at 7-0. The only other team with this record in this current tournament is Canada. At this moment they are facing Australia in the playoffs. And WHEN they win, they will most likely face Canada tomorrow in the semis. Unless USA somehow manages to dismantle Canada in todays playoffs. Suckful for Canada or USA to have to play NZ tomorrow because they will have to play their best of the best A game to proceed. And if they fail, neither will claim this years title. Actually I'm not really sure how it all works but let's just hope NZ can go all the way. Go NZ!!
